Yes, you can prune a tamarack tree in the spring, ideally after the last frost but before new growth begins. Spring pruning helps to remove any dead or damaged branches and can encourage healthy growth. However, it's important to avoid heavy pruning, as tamaracks can be susceptible to stress and disease. Always use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts and minimize damage to the tree.

No, it's a bad idea to prune a pin oak in spring, as you may be increasing the chances of its infestation by the fungus oak wilt. Better to prune it when dormant. By the time oak wilt is diagnosed, it is too late to save the tree.
To properly prune a Jane Magnolia tree, start by removing any dead or damaged branches. Then, selectively prune to shape the tree and encourage new growth. Avoid heavy pruning, as it can reduce flowering. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth appears.
I am not sure when the tree sets its buds, but you would trim the tree after the tree has bloomed in the spring to avoid cutting off the buds for the flowers.
The larch is a deciduous conifer. In other words it is a conifer that drops it's needles in the Autumn.
May 2009 - Response to "If it's outside, prune it in the fall. " If you prune in the fall, you will very likely diminish the number of blooms you see in the Spring, as bud set up occurs the previous year. Fall is a good time to look over your tree and note where over lapping branches are located, where disease might be occurring, what you want to delete - if it is growing too close to a building or or is interfering with where you walk. In general, while the leaves are off in the fall, take a good look and plan for spring pruning after the flowers have bloomed. It will have leafed out by the time you get ready to prune, but if you already did an appraisal of what you wish to do to it, you should be ready to go. If it's outside, prune it in the fall. WRONG! prune in spring when the tree is no longer dormant, it will significantly reduce the chances of killing it
