Yes they can, here are a few examples, some are quite obuious, like Garlic, Fresh coffee, lavender, fresh cut grass, perfume and Gloss Paint, when I was a truck driver in the Army we had to learn the different smell of Petrol, Diesel and Engine Oil so that we knew what was what when it was dark, Police dogs can be trained to sniff for drugs or explosive, and equipment can be made to sniff test for toxic gas in mines.
