Technically, yes. Practically, no. The majority of people are always going to bump uglies, it's only a matter of time. Might as well promote safe sex, so when they get to the no pants dance they do it safe. Plus with all the nonsense and pseudoscience being spread around with AIDS this is only compounding the problem.
Abstinence only education has been shown to be completely ineffective. Peoples biological urges are usually stronger than their religious convictions.
