I have acne scars, and my doctor recommended co2 fractional laser, but she said it won't cure 100% but 70-80%. can i take the treatment again?

laser ; acne: This can be a very effective treatment if in the right hands and you can do this multiple times. Watch out for depigmentation and ask about this with your doctor.

Yes: You can definitely repeat the treatment again once the skin has healed completely. Make sure you see significant improvement before undergoing the repeat treatment.
