Autism is a broad category and the answer is likely to be no. A young child should not be left alone. Even for a child in their teens, it is more likely that the child would need supervision for their own safety. A parent who leaves a special needs child home alone without appropriate supervision would be charged with neglect and placing the child at risk. There are so many bad outcomes possible in that situation.
However, the answer depends on numerous factors besides the age of the child such as the symptoms, the severity of the symptoms, the opinion of professionals who have evaluated and treated the child and the child's behavior.

They should not be left home alone for too long the first time and go over the emergency procedures with your child.You may gradually increase the time alone if it is okay with the child.
