If you're talking about deferred probation, the answer is yes, unless there was an affirmative finding of family violence ("domestic violence" under federal law).
Even if you get deferred probation for a misdemeanor, if there is a finding of family violence, you cannot posses a firearm under federal law. TX law allows it, but federal law doesn't.

It's a pretty wordy law, but it lays it all out...
