Not quite. It's not the hydrogen that moves around as H2, but rather the hydrogen ions H+, which is basically protons. It's basically analogous to metals, where the metal ion is frozen, in a sea of electrons, where the electrons can move about from atom to atom...thereby making the metal conductive to electricity. In the case of this water-ice, it would mean that oxygen ions are frozen in place in a sea of protons...and the protons are super-mobile.
