Not necessarily... those icecaps COULD be dry ice... frozen carbon dioxide.
It's pretty much been agreed that the icecaps are water ice, but the possibility still remained that it was dry ice. Finding liquid water would decide it once and for all.

No the presence of water ice HAS been determined. They have even mapped which parts of the polar caps are ice and which are C02.
