Dear Student,

Please find below the solution of your asked query:

Yes , if there is friction in between the
rope and the pulley, the man will be able to pull himself
up because when he applies force to raise himself his
downward slide will be opposed by
the frictional force acting in between the rope
and the pulley and by and by he will succeed in raising himself

Hope this information clears your doubts about the topic

Looking forward to hear from you again!!

Regards
