Is it true that SpaceX Falcon 9 boosters can land after launch?

Yes. A NASA report describes a Falcon 9 first stage completing its descent and landing at Cape Canaveral, and a Wikipedia article notes a booster landing failure in 2024 after years of successful landings. Other sources refer to Falcon 9 reusability and landing legs, consistent with boosters landing.
