In my humble opinion, I think it is possible. They have some relationship and simiarlities.
Thick-skinned means you are insensitive with one's criticism/insult.
Say when a wife found out his husband has a lover, our neighbour knew and scolded the husband. He did not react any. He seemed to have no shame at all those things
I think the neighbours could call him both thick-skinned and shameless.
Here thick-skinned contains a meaning of "shameless" inside.
