There are honey cured meats and sugar seems to do the same thing as salt. I don't think I've seen anyone say sugar pickles. Anyone know? Yes, I googled it.

If you use sugar to pickle something, the result is called "jam". Strawberry jam is sugar-pickled strawberries. So... Yes, you can. And it's done commonly.
