Well you can obviously see them in the night sky if that's what you mean. But a camera is not a eye, y'know, so it may not pick them up. But with a thin atmosphere, you should, were you standing on Mars, be able to see them better than here on Earth. Star's twinkle here on Earth because of distortion from our atmosphere.
