Sure, but the key and the tropemaker for rivalshipping is "(grudging) respect". It doesn't have to be "like" but if the respect isn't there or never forms, you have a ship between two enemies having hatesex who feel nothing but contempt and annoyance for each other.

The characters 'acknowledging each other as rivals' is necessary, if a character sees another character as merely an obstacle to be crushed, an ignorable idiot, or a bully to be endured then it's not really the trope because they're not really competing, the focus is elsewhere.
