It depends of course on the specific material, but it being nano-sized makes no difference at all to the NMR spectrum. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance works on the principles of excitation and emission of the nucleus of the atoms. Only certain nuclei are capable of being monitored using NMR spectroscopy. What is required is a nucleus with an odd number of particles in it (such as carbon-13, hydrogen-1, fluorine-19, etc) which have odd spin. However such nuclei are common to most materials and therefore should allow the use of NMR for characterisation of nanoparticles.
