No it can't because of Acoustic Flanking

The answer is NONE ZERO. You putting carpet on your floors will reduce the impact noise (foot Fall) the neighbor below experiences but will do nothing for the airborne sound coming up. Besides if a lot of it is impact noise from them then that is already flanking through the building materials and is radiating off your floor and walls. If you can feel the vibration of their washing machine that is sitting on their floor then those vibrations are running across their floor, running up common walls and across your floor. This is text book acoustic flanking. We have vibration pads that can go under their washer/dryer which will help a lot. We can't do much about the ceiling fan. Its hard bolted to your floor underneath. What they really need to do is remove their drywall ceiling, add Genie Clips then re-drywall with a double layer using Green Glue. That will take care of the ceiling but you may still experience the flanking up the walls.
