Yes, but ethanol extracts more than just the Hash Oil, making the oil harsh.
The best extraction solvent is Butane.
If you cannot find out how to do it somewhere online, I'll explain if you want.

All you need for the butane extraction is a bottle of butane and a piece of pvc and two cap. The butane extraction is 100X faster than the alcohol, the butane will evaporate and be ready to smoke in 20 minutes. Itll take a whole day with alcohol

Compressed CO2 gas works incredibly well, and it's the de-facto standard for oil extraction in the perfume industry.

basically, fill up a tube with weed, have one end with a cap and a hole drilled in it for the butane, the other end has a coffee filter and then a cap with a bunch of holes drilled in it. Put the butane in the hole on top and let it spray over the weed and out the coffee filter onto a glass plate or bowl. let the butane evaporate, and theres your oil. Make sure to get good butane, like colibra or vector, dont get the shit from the gas station. You have to go to a smoke shop.

Get either Vector or Colibra brand butane. You can get it on the net if you cant find it at a cigar shop. If you find another brand that you want to test you can spray it on glass and see if it leaves any residue.

best thing to make oil with is isoprophyl alcohol...take 3-5 gallons of it depending on quanity of weed or even shake...put weed in garbage container...add isoprophyl stir and let sit for 30 mins..longer you let it sit more oil you get..less time you let it sit better oil less you get..your choice..get rags rap them over the top of garbage container..tape them secure...tip container so liquid (alcohol) pours out...pour it into 5 gallon buckets...liquid should be a darkish green....after all liquid is extracted (make sure you did it threw rags so no leaf or bud gets in bucket)..burn left over bud in fire pit or somethin...get a Wok for cooking vegetables and such..put liquid in it cook on low until liquid has turned in solid oil state keep adding liquid till all is evaporated and scrap off excess oil..do this while its still warm so it will be easy to run off good luck
