Yes. As a matter of fact, I played a regular card
game with most of the coven back on Montieth. There
is a pretty good overlap between gamers and pagans, to
include my roommate. :) They don't do it skyclad,
and there's a running gun battle between most pagans
and their commanders over athames (big knives are
generally required to be kept in the arms room), but
other than that and petty (and illegal) harassment
Wiccans have as much freedom of religion as anyone
else.
