If they were not killed when the lava was molten, yes.

Of course once the lava is solid they can grow ON the lava. However until the lava rock has begun to decompose into soil it is usually hard for the plants to get enough water. Either the lava rock is impervious to water and it all runs off or the lava rock is so porous that water all drains away through it.

WHY do you think plants that live in water only grow near the surface?
