Well, Yes and No.
If you're stranded or driving a short distance to a repair service, then Yes, you'll be OK.
But, if you're planning anything other than that I'd say No.
In addition from keeping the coolant from freezing, anti-freeze also provides needed lubrication for the Waterpump bearing as well as corrosion pretection. It wouldn't take much driving at all for damage to the pump or corrosion to occur.
