Not practically.

It's is only just possible to detect a laser beam bounced off the moon.
Thanks to the monostatic radar equation, doubling the distance between
the transmitter/receiver and the target would reduce the size of the
received
signal by a factor of 16. Trebling the distance reduces the signal by
a factor of 81, and so on.

Ninety light years is over one billion times the Earth-Moon
distance.
