No. When fawns are very young it is hard to tell the sex. No two fawns have the same spotted pattern. In older fawns, you can tell the sex just by looking for the buds at the top of their heads. If the fawn has buds, it is male; if not, it is female.

Females have buds too. These are the two black spots on top of their head. You can not sex the deer by that. I have been feeding deer all my life. Females have these two black spots all the time. Cant sex them by that I'm afraid!
