No, cicadas do not function as pollinators. As members of the True Bug order Hemiptera, the Cicada has piercing and sucking mouthparts. They primarially pierce the twigs of bushes and tress and then feed on the sap within. Since they are not attracted to flowers there is no way for them to intentionally or unintentionally pollinate anything.
