No, the moon's surface is too reflective when the light is shining, and therefore the sun's light reflected from the moon's surface blocks any stars from being visible from the surface of the moon by either eye or camera.

Can stars being seen from moon surface in daytime as sun is shining?

No. The sun washes out all the stars on the moon just as it does on earth. The Apollo 16 astronauts took a telescopic camera with them to the moon to shoot pictures of some stars. They had to keep it in the shade of the Lunar Module in order for it to work. The camera was a wide angle camera and took very long exposures. They aimed it at various points in the sky according to instructions from the ground. That's how it was able to capture the stars they were looking for.

Why can't stars be seen from the moon?

Stars can't be seen from the surface of the moon during the daytime because the brightness of the sun overwhelms the faint light of the stars. In the lunar night, stars can be seen, but due to the lack of a significant atmosphere on the moon to scatter the light, they appear much brighter and can make it difficult to see fainter stars.

How does the moon shines?

The moon does not shine of itself. What we see is when the sun is shining on the moon and it is illuminated. So the moon is reflecting light towards us. If you were on the moon, and the sun was shining on the part of earth that was facing you, the earth would appear to be shining. The other planets that we see that appear to shine, are also just being lit up by the sun.
