Yes, they can. I've seen it in my repair ventures, but it's very, very seldom that it happens. It's also not known as ghosting, but is known as burn-in. Ghosting is what's known as another image that appears on the screen, the same as the one you're watching. It can be very close to the original images or a few inches away from the original image. This is usually cause by a reflection in the signal path, allowing the same signal to be received a bit later than the original, or it can occur in the cables used to connect the TV. LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screens do not experience pixel burn-in, also known as "ghosting" like older plasma models could. Pixel burn-in occurs when an image is left on the television for a long period of time. When the TV is later turned off, the image that was previously on the screen can be faintly seen on the screen, known as ghosting.

Plasma screens are less energy efficient than LCD screens, per square inch. LCD screens are more subject to blurring than plasma screens. The color saturation and black-level performance are considered slightly better in plasma screens, though it depends on model. Plasma screens have a greater likelihood of burn-in than LCD screens.

Guys I have a problem of burn-in image with my Plasma so should I consuder going for LCD TV Panel?

LCD technology is not prone to screen "burn-in" or "ghosting" (premature aging of pixel cells) due to the nature of the technologies "twisting crystals." With plasma, static images will begin to "burn-in," or permanently etch the color being displayed into the glass display element. Therefore go for the LCD TV Panel.
