Apparently, a large plant of the mistletoe can be seen when the sycamore tree has shed its leaves, so I can only assume the answer is yes.

Assuming you're talking of the UK...

 

There is one species of mistletoe wild in Britain, Viscum album.  However, it has several distinct types (which may really be species).  The commonest one is not that fussy, but is most commonly found on apple, locust (Robinia), and poplar.  Apparently it will grow on sycamore, as well as hawthorn, ash, rowan and elm.

 

There are other rarer types which are more fussy -- one on oak, one on Scots pine, and perhaps others.
