Unless you're experienced with cleaning out all gasoline residue, it's not recommended. The skateboard bearings could produce a slight spark (after you ree-assemble it) and the flash point for gasoline is low enough that you could create a small fire.

Gasoline is dangerous.
WD-40 will clean and lubricate them.

i think so, but the issue is there are several carcinogenic compounds in gasoline, most notably benzene. (carcinogenic means cancer-causing) so using gasoline as a solvent is potentially bad for your health and is not recommended. just get some wd-40 instead.
