• No. There is a general characteristic of English grammar that you can use adjectives as uncountable nouns - e.g. The poor are always with us. SemperBlotto (talk) 15:30, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
  • p.s. We do sometimes include the noun if it has a different translation. SemperBlotto (talk) 15:32, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

A plural homelesses is attestable from Google Books, but is non-standard. Equinox ◑ 14:31, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
