No, dielectric grease is to provide insulation from corrosion on electrical contact points.
It is normally used in lamp sockets and electrical plug in connectors that are subject to some exposure to the elements.
The intent of distributor contact points is to intermittently conduct electricity. The points in a normally maintained system under go little wear and the distributor being a closed environment has little corrosion.
