Yes, under U.S. law, only U.S. citizens can be tried for treason. The Constitution specifies that treason consists of levying war against the United States or adhering to its enemies, and it is a crime that applies exclusively to citizens. Non-citizens may face other charges related to national security or espionage, but not treason.
