No..
Supplementary angle measure ,180°.
And acute angles are less than 90 ° .even if we add 2 acute angles they cannot be supplementary.
180/2 = 90° but acute angles are not equal to or more than 90°
Hence it is proved that,two acute angles can not be supplementary.
This is the answer to the question.

first of all, what are acute angles?
acute angles are those angles whose measure is between 90° and 0° but not 90° or 0°
now we know that the sum of two supplementary angle is always 180°
therefore the two angles must be 180/2 = 90°
and acute angles are less then 90° so it can't be possible.
but it's possible if one angle is acute and another one is obtuse angle.
like sum of 80° and 100°
where 80° is an acute angle and 100° is a obtuse angle.
so final answer - two acute angles can't be supplementary.
