Answer

Yes, $X=CB-A$

Work Step by Step

Multiply both sides with $C$ from the left, and with $B$ from the right $ \begin{array}{rrlll} \cdot C/ & C^{-1}(A+X)B^{-1} & = & I_{n} & /\cdot B\\ & C\cdot C^{-1}(A+X)B^{-1}\cdot B & = & C\cdot I_{n}\cdot B & \\ & I\cdot(A+X)\cdot I & = & CB & \\ & A+X & = & CB & /-X\\ & X & = & CB-A & \end{array}$ Yes, $X=CB-A$
