That would be difficult since Starlink orbits more than 100km higher than the ISS.

There have been near collisions with Starlink satellites and China’s space station:

No, that actually makes it possible. If they were lower then it would be difficult (or even impossible). But the chances of a collision are really small given how tiny the relative cross sections of satellite and ISS are compared to the total surface area of the shell the ISS orbits in.
