Only if it was out of the blast radius but within the kill zone (the “ring”). Honesty, I doubt a neutron weapon was used in this situation. While far, far less destructive with a much smaller long-term radiation footprint than a H-bomb, it is still equivalent to a small fission weapon like we used in WW II; there would still be a small area of long-term radiation even though the radiation in the outlying areas would decay to safe levels in a matter of days...

It is an interesting thought, however.

I hadn’t considered it until someone else upthread mentioned it. Doubt it too, but it would kinda be ‘stunning’.
