No. To already be inhabited means the island was previously discovered---at some time in the past. You cannot "discover" what is already "discovered". However, an individual can 'discover' something on a personal level, even though it was officially discovered long ago. Examples:

He discovered the beauty of India.


Her discovery that corn starch helps control itching has long been known.


Looking through a microscope, students discovered just how small red blood cells appear.


We discovered the talents of writer, William Shakespeare.


Though native islanders knew their homeland, it was fun to go off on my own to make my own discoveries.
