Can you treat tax as expenses?

Tax is an expense on financial statements. However, income tax is an expense of the year in which the income was earned, not the year the tax is paid.

If you have small business expenses but no income will you get a tax return?

You can get a tax refund (I think that's what you meant) if you paid more taxes in than you owed. So, if you had no income, you would owe no taxes and should get anything back you paid in. Of course, if you had no income, how did you pay taxes?
