No. You cannot challenge a judgment call by a referee and a penalty is a judgment call.
However, if during the review the officials determine that there were 12 players on the field at the time of the play, that penalty can be administered. But a coach cannot officially call for a review due to his thinking that the referees missed a penalty on the play.
Actually, penalties such as illegal forward pass, forward pass beyond the line of scrimage, and touching of the ball by an ineligable receiver are reviewable. So penaties that are factual are reviewable.
only if it is a penalty that can be reviewed, such as illegal touching for stepping out of bounds and coming back in to touch the ball first if they think it should be reviewed. if the penalty couldnt be challenged by a coach normally, the booth cant review it. unfortunately
Per NFL rules, a quarter cannot end on an accepted penalty. The defense would accept the penalty, the TD would be wiped out, and there would be one more play, an untimed play, that would be the last play of the game.
According to the NFL rulebook, illegal formations, motions and substitutions all carry a five-yard penalty.

No. As long as you snap the ball while there is still time on the clock, the game can't end until the play is over. If you snap it with 1 second to go and throw an incompletion but there is a penalty on the defense, you get another play. (The game can not end on a defensive penalty)
