No. You have to quarantine them. And let the display run fallow for 78 days

I would set-up a QT and treat them with Cupramine or hypo salinity for a month (in the QT).

That works even better. But you just have to keep a closer eye on levels of medication or salinity

True, make sure you have a test kit for the copper and a good hydrometer.

You have to take all fish out of your display tank and QT them all. Then leave tank farrow.
Depending on what type of fish you have.
Cooper vs chloroquine phosphate would be my recommendation. For tangs you can use either. CP is less harsh on the fish. No safe for all wrasses and certain other fish
Good luck

Quick story,
I had a small purple tang in my 65 gallon. Perfectly healthy with zero sign of disease. After a couple of years the purple got to large so I decided to catch her and put into my eel tank. Anyways, after finally catching her and putting into larger tank, my purple tang was WHITE! Absolutely covered in ick. What did i do? Nothing! Tang never stopped eating and in a month it was perfect again. No other fish were infected or my eels. All tanks have ick, keep your fish happy and eating and they will naturally beat it or die. To pull all your fish out is crazy.
Now velvet is another story. That **** wiped my tank out 6 years ago.
