Correct answer
No, because other drivers may not have noticed their presence.
Inviting them to cross as though you could guarantee safety across the entire carriageway is not recommended. Other drivers may not have seen them or understood your gesture. This does not remove your duty to moderate speed and yield where required. Stop and clearly leave the crossing free, obeying signs; pedestrians should also check traffic. This is preventive advice, not a claim that every communication gesture is expressly prohibited.
