Depends; do live dragon scales have the same properties as dead dragon scales? if the shed scales (lose their colour and) can absorb magic due to the dragons magic draining out of them then the live scales wouldn't have the absorbant property since they are already filled.

Even if they do, the scarf (and Ultear's crystal ball) needed to be cleansed/repaired before they could absorb again so at best Acno only has immunity up to a curtain threshold (Probably why Zeref wants fairy heart, so he can overload Acno's capasity to absorb his magic), though this does mean that Acno can still be killed with death force/death inducement attacks.
