Yes, in general friction can occur in a vacuum, but the only kind of friction that doesn't occur in a vacuum is, of course, air friction. There is no drag force on an object falling in a vacuum.

Is there less friction in vacuum?

In an atmosphere, when an object moves through the air it experiences friction with the air through which it moves. In a vacuum, there is no air and therefore no friction with an atmosphere as the result of an object moving through space. However, if two surfaces are moving against each other, there would still be friction from that action, even in a vacuum. In fact, in the absence of air that kind of friction could be increased.
