My dear friend.
The answer to your question is yes. Neon is one of the so called lighter than air gases. It's lift capacity is sort of the same capacity as hot air gives. The only problem about it is the high cost of neon gas, plus like any other gas it will leak out after a while through the pores of the balloon's walls.
Seems like it's not worth it to use neon gas in a balloon, although it will float nonetheless.

What else can I help you with?
Will pumice float or sink in water?
In general, pumice will float. There is enough trapped air in pumice that it is buoyant.
Can asphalt float on water?
Asphalt is denser than water and will sink in water rather than float.
Will silicon sink or float in water?
Silicon will sink in water because it has a higher density than water.
Does feldspar float in water?
No, feldspar does not float in water because it is more dense than water. When placed in water, feldspar will sink to the bottom.
Does sulfur sink or float?
Sulfur sinks in water because it is denser than water.
Does a balloon float or sink on water and why?
A balloon filled with air will float on water because it is less dense than water. The buoyant force acting on the balloon allows it to float.
Why does a balloon filled with water neither sink or float and it just drifts and literally becomes one with the water?
The density of water molecules is the same inside the balloon as on the outside.
Can Chlorine sink or float?
Chlorine is a gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, so it cannot sink or float. It is typically stored and transported in tanks as a compressed gas.
Will string float or sink in water?
Nope Most string should float on top of water becomes the string material is less dense than he water.
Why does not a balloon full of oxygen float?
A balloon filled with oxygen, like any other gas, will only float if it is less dense than the surrounding air. The weight of the balloon, the gas inside, and the container itself typically make the balloon denser than the air, causing it to sink. A helium-filled balloon floats because helium is much lighter than air.
Does a weighted air filled balloon with the same density as water float or sink?
Neither, it just stays submerged, provided its density stays the same as the water around.
What determines if a balloon filled with a gas will rise or sink in the air?
A balloon filled with a gas will rise or sink depending on the density of the gas inside compared to the surrounding air. If the gas inside is less dense than the surrounding air, the balloon will rise. If the gas inside is more dense, the balloon will sink.
What is the difference between having helium in a balloon and having air in a balloon?
Helium is lighter than air, so a balloon filled with helium will float. In contrast, air-filled balloons will sink because the density of air is greater than that of helium. Additionally, helium balloons will deflate faster than air-filled balloons due to its smaller molecular size.
Will balloon filled with water sink in oil?
Water is denser than oil, so yes, it will sink. That is true whether the water is inside a balloon or not.
A balloon filled with air is released in a room filled with carbon dioxide will the balloon float to the ceiling or sink to the floor?
The balloon filled with air will float to the ceiling in a room filled with carbon dioxide. This is because the density of carbon dioxide is greater than the density of air. The balloon will experience a buoyant force upwards due to the density difference, causing it to rise towards the ceiling.
How subs float and sink?
subs have empty tanks in them. this empty tanks are filled with water when the subs need to sink and emptied when the subs need to float.
Is it the weight that makes things float?
No, it's the air volume on each item. For example, a balloon filled with air will surely float on the water, but a ballon filled with water will not float. That's because there is no air in the second one and that makes it even heavier.
