Yes, many nonrefundable have the clause that it is nonrefundable if cancelled more than one day after booking the reservation.

However, I seriously doubt that someone who elects not to carefully read the cancellation policy when it is presented twice prior to booking is going to read it within 24 hours of booking the reservation.
