No because a father has the chromosomes of XY and a mother has the chromosomes of XX so i order for the offspring to be a male it must inherit the Y chromosome from the father and the X chromosome from the mother. if the offspring were to inherit the X chromosome from the father, the offspring would have to be a female.

hope that explains it well!!
