Yes. Paragraph 124-70(1)(c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not require that you purchase a replacement CGT asset after you receive the notice. It requires that you dispose of the original asset to an Australian government agency after the notice was served on you.

The timing requirements for roll-over under Subdivision 124-B are set out in subsection 124-75(3). They do not require that a notice be received before any acquisition of the replacement CGT asset. Under paragraph 124-75(3)(a), you can incur expenditure in acquiring a replacement CGT asset no earlier than one year before the original asset was compulsorily acquired (or within such further time as the Commissioner allows in special circumstances).

In this Taxation Determination a 'replacement CGT asset' is another CGT asset you incur expenditure in acquiring if you receive money for one of the roll-over events in subsection 124-70(1) happening to a CGT asset: see section 124-75.
