Yes. You  can have bone grafting procedure done a year after extraction or a tooth and then you would wait about 3 months before placing the implant.

Mounir Iskandar, DDS, MSD · Answer

It is usually recommended to place the implant same time of tooth extraction if possible or shortly after to avoid bone loss. 1 year after extraction is fairly not so long depends on the way of the tooth pulled , atraumaticaly or not and site of extraction. Most of times it is pretty simple to graft after one year as it is still the bone loss is not as big compared to waiting for few years.
