Can it snow in Buenos Aires city?

The chances are low, but not impossible. The conditions for that to happen must be very precise: temperatures close to 0 °C (32 °F), high humidity, and low cloud cover.

For now, the most likely scenario is only cold drizzle or an isolated flake. However, the SMN keeps the alert active and recommends staying tuned to upcoming official reports.
