Absolutely. A person's IQ score can be afffected by transitory emotional states in the same way that it can be affected by a poor night's sleep or a poor breakfast. It is well known that depression and anxiety can directly impact memory and concentration in a negative manner, not to mention other crucial learning variables including motivation, peristence, and interest.

Quite good but IQ tests, especially those done online, are not a good indicator of IQ. Age comes into it when doing children and a true IQ test is not performed any more.
