In theory, yes ..... in reality, it's a complete waste of time ....just grab a t-shirt out of the wardrobe, lay it on the bed, and try to roll it neatly with no creases .....can't be done.
If you hang stuff up as soon as you get to your holiday destination, the creases will mostly fall out .... if in doubt, get a small travel iron, they don't take up much more room than a couple of pairs of socks....

It doesn't work. Best way is to pack things with the least number of folds possible - that way you'll have the least number of creases. Lay items in a suitcase so's they take up the whole of the available room, folding only as necessary to fit inside. For a holdall with a stiffener, use the stiffener as a template, lay the clothes on it, and again fold them as little as possible to fit. With assistance, lift the lot as one and ease it into the bag.
My best tip is to use a beach-towel as a liner for a suitcase or holdall. Once you've got everything inside a case, fold the beach-towel tightly over the clothes, tucking it in and securing it firmly if your suitcase has those internal straps. With a holdall, lay the towel down and position all the clothes on top. Pick up the lot, and get them into the bag, then tuck the towel tightly over the clothes.
Using the beach-towel like thismeans your clothes stay tight and don't slop about in transit. You'll be surprised just how crease-free your stuff is on arrival by using this method.
