No. You should wait until the cake is completely cooled before adding icing. Also, you can wait until just before the cake is to be served to icing, or you can ice the cake as far as a day in advance.

Can icing sugar be used instead of granulated sugar for baking cake?

Not unless the cake recipe specifically calls for icing sugar. Granulated sugar has a specific weight to measured volume and will provide that specific quantity and sweetness to the cake. Icing sugar has a different weight to volume, different texture and a different level of sweetness. It is important to use the specific ingredient called for in the recipe being followed in order to obtain the proper result.
