Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It depends on the equation.
EDIT: For example, $y'' + y/x^2 = x^2$ has general solution
$$ y = a sqrt{x} cosleft(frac{sqrt{3}}{2} ln(x)right) +
b sqrt{x} sinleft(frac{sqrt{3}}{2} ln(x)right) + frac{x^4}{13}$$
for arbitrary constants $a, b$.

Thank you, could you pls give me one example for having solution

The example solution doesn't solve the example ODE when $a = b = 0$. I think you may have solved it with an $x^2$ on the right hand side.
