The answer to this is no. You are referencing an old tax method of reinvesting profit in order to not report income on a home. The laws have changed on sale of a home. The first issue of importance is was this your primary residence or not. Of it was your primary residence and it was never used for rental (never), then you now have a lifetime exclusion of profit on your residence of $250,000. You may use part or all of this exclusion at once or in combination of more than one home sale. If you have a business of moving into homes, renovating and selling then you do not qualify for this exclusion. It is also of note that if the home is you and your spouses name then you each have the exclusion for a total of $500,000. Profit would always be used equally by each of you. This means that a $40,000 profit would be $20,000 from each of your exclusion amount. Sale of a rental house or if you are in the business of flipping homes would have to be reported as business income whether or not you lived in the home. Either way the sale must be reported on your tax return and exclusion claimed if desired. You can't just not report it then claim exclusion if audited.
