They could probably reach it, but would they want to settle there? They didn't settle the once-fertile parts of Greenland, after all. Though the Norse may have preempted them on that.
Inuit-wank?
I remember reading a report of strange bodies floating ashore near Bristol England shortly before the Columbus voyage and they were apparently Inuit, so yes I think it is plausible.

They could have but Iceland had already been discovered and colonised by the Vikings. The Vikings actually beat the Inuits to Greenland too (the Vikings discovered and colonised Greenland in the 10th Century, the Inuit arrived in the 13th Century)
I didn't want them to beat the Vikings, I wanted them to go after the vikings left Greenland.
What difference would it make by then?
I mean, if the Icelandic people find a few dozen (at most) people in hide canoes showing up on their seashores, it's not like it would be reported as anything but a historical curiosity. Possibly not even that, if the contact was too intermittent and wasn't enough reason for trade between the two peoples.
The Official Language of Greenland is an Inuit language....
With their boats, could they have actually made it?
Didn´t some tribes reach Greenland, perish and then a few hundred years pass.
Okay, they could land a handful of people, but would it be enough to actually start a decent settlement?Yes. You can see Greenland from the northwestern part of Iceland and vice-versa. Also kajaks have made it across.
