Yes, 'lakin' can be used at the beginning of a sentence to introduce a contrasting idea, similar to 'However,' in English. For example, 'Lakin, bu doğru deyil.' (However, this is not true.)

While not strictly mandatory in all cases, it's very common to place a comma before 'lakin' when it connects two clauses, especially if the clauses are independent. When 'lakin' starts a sentence, it is also often followed by a comma, but this is less rigid.
