No. Do to the fact that when parents pass on the genes the father only ever gives the Y. What happens in XXY is that for some reason the mother gives both X's or potentially their is a defect with the replication of the cell during development. So while their is a small chance it is not very likely. Also you have to realize the a male with XXY is most likely going to be sterile, however this is not always the case.

One way to differentiate between chromosomes from the mother and the father is through a process called DNA fingerprinting, which can identify specific genetic markers inherited from each parent. Additionally, the X and Y chromosomes can also allow for differentiation between the mother and father, as females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.
