If you are intending to paint plastic pipes because they are visible in a room and you want to disguise them, the answer is yes.
For the white or cream coloured pipes, that carry water (hot and cold) from a source, you may need to give them a light sanding to remove the printing on the surface. Follow with a wipe with a tack cloth, then paint with a good latex primer and finish with your top coat. In some cases two or possibly three coats of your top coat will do if you have no primer.
For the large black pipes that carry waste water away, a light sanding, followed by a good latex primer and then your top coat will get the job done.
