Yes. It is only through creativity that scientific inquiry exists.

@ohmai is right. Many of the great discoveries and theories we recognize stem from creativity and the audacity to think outside of the box at the risk of being ridiculed. Think of Darwin and his book the Origin of Species, Galileo and his ideas, etc.
