In Magic The Gathering, you can sacrifice a creature pretty much anytime you have a spell, ability, or effect that specifically says you can do so! This could be during your turn or even on your opponent's turn, depending on the timing rules of that spell or ability. Just make sure you're following the card's instructions and keeping an eye on the game's phases and any restrictions.
From personal experience, timing is everything. Sacrifice when it'll mess up your opponent's play or when you're about to get a major benefit from an ability. Sacrificed my prized creature once to flip the game on its last leg. Best. Play. Ever.
