Depends. If you are landing at your destination at your structural landing weight you will still be carrying your alternate fuel. However some airplanes have a max zero fuel weight. You have your BOW plus payload plus fuel which can not exceed your structural or performance limits. But the BOW and payload can not exceed the max ZFW. In theory you could be at at max ZFW so you couldn't add more payload.
