No. United Kingdom is not part of the Schengen territory and thus even a permanent residence card from Italy (or any other Schengen state) will not allow a person to enter the UK without valid visa.
Note: There are exceptional cases where a non-EU citizen living in the Schengen territory with a valid residence permit 'may' be admitted to the UK without a valid visa. One such case that I know of is when the said non-EU person is a holder of a residence permit that has been issued as a result of being a family member of an EU citizen. (read more here)

Rather than no, it would be more precise to say not without a UK visa.
