Tracing IP from Image

Hi, I have maybe a silly question but if I have a screenshot of an image with a username that no longer exists, can I trace the IP address of that image to where it was created?

Try Google's image search system and see if the image is on the web. You may find where the image was hosted but no, you can't find where it was created for many reasons.
