No, not if your floor is flat. Regular pentagons do not tile the plane. You will always end up with empty space. You would need to use some other shapes too (or irregular pentagons)

Can copies of a dodecagon be used to tile a surface?

no it can't If each angle is 150 so 150 times anything does not equal 360 * * * * * A correct answer but incorrect reasoning. First, there is no requirement in the question that the polygon is regular so the each angle need not be 150 degrees. As a counter-example to your reasoning, each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees. 108 times anything does not equal 360. Yet there are 14 different non-regular pentagons which can be used to tile a surface.
