No, The Irish pound is no longer a currency.
The Irish pound ceased to be a full currency in 2002 when Ireland switched to the Euro. In order to turn these into usable currency they must be traded for Euro at the Irish Central Bank in Dublin. A local bank in Ireland should be able to assist you with this.
Note however that due to their discontinuation, Irish banknotes will probably return a small premium if sold to a currency collector.
If you refer to the Republic of Ireland pre-Euro Pound notes, you can only exchange them at the Central Bank in Dublin. If you refer to the Northern Ireland Pound notes issued by any of the Northern Ireland retail banks, you should be able to exchange them at any English bank.
Scottish notes are acceptable within the UK
You can change old Irish bank notes that are no longer in circulation at the Central Bank of Ireland. Additionally, some commercial banks may accept them, but policies can vary, so it's best to check with your local bank. There may also be opportunities to exchange them at certain currency exchange services, but again, this varies by provider.
Northern Bank, formed in 1809, is located in Northern Ireland and is one of the oldest banks in Ireland. It has many branches spread throughout the United Kingdom.
The UK consists of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Bank of England is the sole issuing authority for banknotes in England and Wales. Scottish banknotes may be issued by the Bank of Scotland, the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Clydesdale Bank. Four Northern Ireland banks practice their right to issue banknotes, being the Bank of Ireland, the First Trust Bank, the Northern Bank and the Ulster Bank. The banknotes of all Northern Ireland and Scottish banks are backed by the Bank of England.
Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and uses the same currency as the rest of the United Kingdom, the British pound (symbol: £, abbreviation: GBP).However, if you are visiting, you ought to be aware that while they accept Bank of England notes, they also have their own. Although these notes are legal tender in the rest of the United Kingdom, they are often refused in shops and other places where money changes hands; you may have to go to a bank to "convert" them into Bank of England notes.pound sterling
Scotland and England (along with Wales and Northern Ireland) share the same common currency, the Pound Sterling.

Since Scotland is part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland it uses the pound Sterling (GBP £). Three Scottish banks are permitted however to print their own banknotes, which are often referred to as "Scottish notes". These bank notes will look diffrent from Bank of England bank notes but are normally accepted elsewhere in the UK. The three banks are The Royal Bank of Scotland, The Bank of Scotland, and Clydesdale Bank. There are four banks in Northern Ireland which also print their own banknotes. In the medium term there is a chance that the UK (and therefore Scotland) will adopt the Euro as it's currency. However there are no plans to do this yet.
The trading name of the Northern Bank website is the Northern Bank. The proper name of Northern Bank is the Danske Bank of Northern Ireland located in the UK.
