If it was a standard "open pollinated" corn (an "old style" corn), yes - it will reproduce new corn plants and ears exactly like the one you planted the kernels from. If it is a newer hybrid corn (and 98% of all corns grown are hybrid corns) then no, it can't. It will create corn plants, that will grow ears, but the ears will revert to one or another of the parents mated to produce the hybrid - maybe with good results, maybe with very disappointing results.
