Can carbon dating be used to identify the age of index fossils?

No. Carbon dating is only effective for time periods less than 70,000 years. This excludes all the major index fossils, and is a very short geologic time span. Index fossils can be dated, however by their association in the geologic column with metamorphic and igneous rocks, which can be radiometrically dated.
