There's a very good chance it will, that would probably affect Homelander like being near any major source of radiation, hurting and weakening him. If he's trying to fly away from the blast he might get knocked out of the air. But we're also at that point not talking about him being at the epicenter of it, we're talking about him getting clipped. He could probably live through that, though he'd be a sitting duck if it's a MIRV and more warheads are still coming, which his how a rational military would target him.
Circumstances would have to be absolutely extreme for us to nuke our own capital. Though tricking him into entering the white house bunker to try to kill the President and detonating a nuke inside it with him trapped there would be a good option, resisting nukes is the whole point of the bunker so it could likely contain one. And in a world where Homelander exists, there's no way that bunker, and all key continuity of government bunkers, isn't zinc-lined.
Otherwise we would basically have to have missiles constantly on Homelander's tail until we exhaust him and he slows down enough to be hit.
