Short answer, yes, but there are some additional rules involved.
Long answer: BRB page 71, moving skimmers.
|
This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

They can land on impassable but need to take a dangerous test to do so.

And, they need to be actually able to be placed on the impassible terrain in order to land there.
If you have a sharp tower or something, they cannot land on top of it.

Funnily enough, there used to be a rule very similar to that for Orks. In 2nd edition, the Ork Battlewagon (which was considerably smaller than its current incarnation) could carry as many models as you could physically pile on top of it... but if any of them fell off when you tried to move it, they would take a wound.
