Traditionally, that's what's been done to hide javascript code from browsers that can't parse javascript. If a browser can parse js, it ignores the comments. If it can't, the comments keep the browser from seeing the js and printing it out.

I'm not sure I understand your follow-up question. I think you're asking if you should use the <!-- ... --> comment tags to accommodate the browsers that don't support javascript. Sure, go ahead and do that. More importantly, make sure any functionality that the javascript handles is extra. That is, browsers that don't handle javascript should also be able to display your site properly.
