Yes,
if your laptop has SPDIF output (from motherboard or some internal sound card) then connect to suitable DAC with suitable interconnect (optical or coax). This does not require any driver in Laptop, just redirect the default sound output of laptop to that port.
Otherwise, connect your DAC (if USB one) to Laptop using USB cable. This will not require driver or may need drivers from DAC provider. This does not require any sound card. Just require to redirect default sound output of laptop to this newly listed USB sound device.
In any case you get analog output from DAC.
