Taking notes is not permitted, no.

From the current [Tournament Regulations (v3.2)](https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/8d/d6/8dd6ce73-6c74-40ac-a9b5-4c6d4cb50880/adn_tournament_regulations_v32.pdf):

**Edit**: Under NISEI, this has been relaxed for Casual tier events.

From the current [Organized Play Policies](http://nisei.net/files/Organized_Play_Policies.pdf) document (emphasis mine):
