No, net operating losses (NOLs) generally cannot offset capital gains. NOLs primarily offset ordinary income, while capital gains are treated separately for tax purposes. However, if a taxpayer has both NOLs and capital gains, they can use the NOLs to reduce their overall taxable income, but not directly against the capital gains themselves. It's advisable to consult a tax professional for specific situations.
