No, polar is not a noun, it is an adjective. Here are some examples:
- Polar bear: polar is describing the type of bear
- Polar ice cap: polar is describing the type of ice cap
- Polar easterlies (type of wind): polar is describing the area that the winds blow
However, in one case, polar maybe used as a noun, to mean the straight line (polar line) joining the points at which tangents from a fixed point intersect a conic section.

What is the collective noun for polar bears?
Polar bears are solitary creatures; normally the only group of polar bears is a mom and some cubs, a family group. However, when several polar bears do end up together, the collective nouns are an aurora of polar bears or a pack of polar bears. Although pack is one of the collective nouns given, I believe that it's a misnomer since a pack infers a group working together like a pack of dogs, wolves, or coyotes. But even when polar bears are together, they don't work together.
