No, obviously. If you have ethical standards on how you obtain information and you use information obtained through unethical methods then you are condoning and participating in those unethical methods. The ends do not justify the means. Ethical standards are just as important as any other scientific standard or method. No knowledge exists in a vacuum. To use this knowledge would create more problems than it might solve.
Concentration camp "experiments" were not ethical therefore they were not scientific.
