Anyplace on earth that's farther north than the Arctic Circle, or farther south than the
Antarctic Circle, has at least one day a year when the sun doesn't rise, and at least
one day a year when the sun doesn't set. The closer you get to the poles, the longer
these annual periods of no sunrise and no sunset get.
Most of Alaska is south of the Arctic Circle, and has a sunrise and sunset every day of
the year. The Arctic Circle crosses Alaska on the line roughly through Shishmaref, Allakaket,
and Fort Yukon. North of that line is where you can have 24 hours without a sunrise
or 24 hours without a sunset.

Are the hours of daylight and darkness in September equal to March hours of daylight and darkness?
They're the same length on either side of the date of the equinox, which falls in March and September. In 2009 those dates were 3/20 and 9/22, respectively. Just count days on either side of those dates, to answer our question. What ends up happening, is that the first 20 days of March will have roughly the same length of daylight as the 20 days AFTER the September equinox (i.e. 9/22 thru 10/11). Similarly, the first twenty days of September will have the quality of daylight shown for the first 20 days after the spring equinox (3/20 thru 4/9)
