A pain in your neck can certainly affect your arm. You have nerves going from your brain down your spinal chord. Just below the neck they branch out to the arms. Issues with the neck can pinch nerves and make the arms experience pain.

Can the sciatic nerve cause pain in neck left arm and left leg?

The sciatic nerve typically runs from the lower back down through the leg, so it wouldn't directly cause pain in the neck or arm. However, issues in the lower back where the sciatic nerve originates can sometimes radiate pain down the leg, but not usually to the neck or arm. Pain in the neck and arm may be due to separate issues such as a cervical spine problem or shoulder injury.
