Possibly. Sickly is an adjective when used to mean in ill health (e.g. he was a sickly child) and may be seen as either an adjective or adverb when modifying a color (adjective) to mean ugly or repugnant (e.g. a sickly green hue). The open question is whether the word hue or green is being modified.
But sickly is an adverb, used preferentially over sickily, to mean in a manner indicating sickness.
(e.g. he coughed sickly).
