No, however there is some indirect evidence of Ice on the bottom of craters on its north pole.
It was discovered via radar observations. Ice is one of the few materials that are very radar reflective when frozen, and it was discovered that Mercury has very reflective matter in its northern craters.

Which three planets have polar ice caps?
Mars, Earth, and Pluto have polar ice caps. Mars' polar ice caps are primarily made of water and carbon dioxide ice, Earth's polar ice caps are primarily made of frozen water, and Pluto's polar ice caps are a mixture of methane and nitrogen ice.
What planet has polar ice caps?
Mars has polar ice caps at its north and south poles. These ice caps are primarily composed of water ice and carbon dioxide ice. The polar ice caps on Mars play a significant role in the planet's climate and atmospheric composition.
Are the polar ice caps in the north pole?
No. There are two polar ice caps: one around the north pole and one around the south pole.
What Iron oxide and polar ice caps?
Iron oxide is a reddish-brown compound commonly referred to as rust. Polar ice caps are regions of a planet's surface where ice permanently accumulates. The presence of iron oxide in polar ice caps can give them a reddish color, like the red snow in Antarctica caused by iron-oxidizing bacteria.
Is it true that there are no polar caps on the moon?
That's correct. Unlike Earth, the moon does not have a significant atmosphere to support the formation of polar ice caps. While there may be pockets of ice hidden in deep craters at the lunar poles, they are not large enough to be considered polar caps.
