The answer is no, planes take off based on lift (Bernoulli effect) which requires high pressure under the wings and low pressure above. The shape of the wings make this happen as air passes over them. If the plane is stationary and the tires are spinning and the engine is running it will just burn fuel and wear out the tires.
