No, domain names are tied to a person and, even if that person register the domain with fake person details, there will be a digital payment associated with the purchase.

Some registrars accept crypto though.

Yes, I am aware. But nonetheless it is far easier to use anonymously/pseudonymously than "traditional" payment. Like, exchanging BTC/LTC from Monero, and buying said Monero via a non-kyc method as well. And whatever protections you want to layer, depending on how much effort you think "they" would spend on you.
