Can you use lacquer thinner for cleaning used brush?

It may or may not be effective. Traditional lacquer is a nitrocellulose-based coating. Thinners for nitrocellulose include acetone and ethanol (drinking alcohol). Most nail polishes are nitrocellulose lacquers, and that's why acetone is used as a nail polish remover.In general, the rule for thinners is that you need to use the thinner that was originally used to make the coating, or which is sold to be a thinner for the coating. If what's on your brushes isn't lacquer, lacquer thinner may not work as well as a thinner designed for the coating, and it may not work at all.If you already have lacquer thinner somewhere, or some nail polish remover, why not try a little bit to see if it works?
