No, not as it currently stands.

IceBox is based on LibreELEC.  LibreELEC is a minimal Linux distribution that has Kodi pre-installed and an easily installable TVHeadEnd module.

The IceBox bundles all of this, plus their own Kodi add-on that interfaces between the ICE TV servers and TVHeadEnd.

So, you can install Kodi and TVHEadend on Ubuntu, however, the ICE TV add-on expects to see a LibreELEC installation with certain pre-installed files in certain locations and will not run unmodified on a standard Ubuntu platform.
