Yes. In the UK, the police can move any roadworthy vehicle themselves if needed to in the course of their duty, that can include moving a seized car for example if the driver was found to be uninsured.
Police drivers do not 'need' to be insured to drive any other vehicle. That's because (and backed up by case law - Jones v CC Beds Pol 1987) any vehicle driven in the course of police duty is considered a 'police vehicle' and is exempt from needing insurance or taxation as it is a 'crown vehicle' which follows different laws.
