Can you measure tenths if a gram with confidence using balance?

It depends on the calibration and sensitivity of the balance. If you’re using a lab balance, then yes. Most lab balances are calibrated to the hundredths at a minimum. Take time to tare the scale correctly, and give the sample enough time on the scale to reach a definite number.
