Not as a matter of course. A local Sheriff is empowered only to enforce State law whereas US Marshalls enforce only Federal Law. However, this is not to say that a local Sheriff or, for that matter, any local law enforcement officer,couldn't be temporarily sworn in as a Deputy US Marshall if circumstances require.
