Nope.

Street lights are too weak in intensity ehich is insufficient for most of the plants.

Besides many plants are wavelength sensitive i.e. they photosynthesize under a particular range of wavelength( normally the yellow range)
wavelengths longer than 700 nm appear to be unable to drive photosynthesis. The wavelength is too long, the energy content of the photons too low.

The street light has to be of that wavelength and of sufficient intensity for the plants to photosynthesize!

NO they can´t because it´s too weak and does´n contain all frequecies that are in the sunlight
