Can my husbands retirement account be garnish by child support?

First its not a good idea to piggyback your question on someone else's. This can lead to confusion. You should start a new thread. So I've moved your question to its own thread.

It depends on the source of the retirement funds and the agency ordering support, but its possible.

As FrChuck said, yes, it's entirely possible - child support is one of the exceptions to garnishment laws in most - if not all - States.
