No, tags cannot inherit from one another, but you can achieve a similar
effect by structuring your headings in the same fashion.  Org has tag
inheritance, but in this case it just means that a heading will inherit
the tags from its parent heading:

* Technology :tech:
** Emacs :emacs:
*** Org Mode :orgmode:
**** TODO Turn on tag inheritance

The TODO heading from above will have the following tags (if tag
inheritance is enabled):

 :tech:emacs:orgmode:
