No, and even the first few comments make it clear Antarctica did not gain ice.
A subarea of Antarctica, where they expected ice to decrease, gained ice. Antarctica as a whole lost ice.
One reason could be that this subarea is an area where ice is lost from, but also an area where ice from Antarctica moves to. So as ice in general melts, some of it also gets relocated to this area.
