No. Antarctica is a continent, and fish require liquid water as a natural habitat. There are fish that thrive in the Southern Ocean, however, which surrounds the Antarctic continent.

You can review a list of fish one can find in the Southern Ocean here:

Generally, scientists reach Antarctica either on research ships or by military logistical support according to the facilities afforded to the scientist by the government supporting the research.
