It is possible for that to happen, if it's more than one spark plug, depending on the engine of the vehicle. check your spark plugs, if you replace them and still have the miss, check you the spark plug wires and distributor

Can a misfire make a truck not start?
You have not given enough information to even begin to answer this question. If the truck won't start, What makes you think that it has a misfire? A misfire is typically one or more cylinders not firing when the truck is running. If you indeed have a dead cylinder, that alone will not keep the engine from starting , unless you have catastrophic failure,(Something broken inside the given cylinder). However if you are not getting any fire then the truck will not start. Also if the truck has recently run & it ran rough, (As in mis-firing), then it may need a tune-up , (Or something more involved), & if that condition is bad enough; then YES, it could keep the engine from starting.
