No.

Ice skating isn't possible in the total absence of friction.

Skating, or any kind of controlled motion involves having to both speed up and slow down, and for that controlled motion, friction is essential.

While technically you can move on any surface in the absence of friction, it will only be an uncontrolled, uniform motion in a single direction.

The skates will not work on frictionless ice since they won't even 'stay' on the ice without friction. They will slip right off without pinpoint precision.
