A wise man once told me that the correct answer is it depends. He/She can call timeout whenever he/she wants. The key word being can. It depends on the governing rules of the league you are working for. NFHS rules are as follows:
Yes, a coach may call a timeout if his/her team has control of the basketball or there is a dead ball.
No, a coach may not call a timeout if his/her team doesn't control the basketball.
