No, I mean they could do what streaming services do and drm encode the stream, or make the ads indistinguishable from the videos, making it impossible to block.
If the ads were added to the video stream (I assume this is what you’re suggesting) they can be easily skipped by scrubbing the timeline.
On the other hand, if they add metadata so the client can make them unskippable, the ad blockers will have something to work with.
Classic catch 22.
