I don't think so. In Lothlórien he had the protection of trees (as Legolas says in the Council of Elrond Gollum had become a masterful climber of trees and had learned to cling with both hands and feet to a branch). So he could use his sneak- and climb-talents to shake off the elves.
At the gate he would have no protection at all and I wonder if he was so sneaky that he could pass by them without being spotted. I don't think so.
