No, in a test environment, you still need an APNS certificate. This is the method that Apple requires a developer to use to communicate with an iOS device.
Symantec wrote a KB to guide you through this process:

You can get an APNS certificate from your Symantec sales engineer or Symantec partner. If you have neither partner or sales engineer, contact your sales representative at Symantec.
