You definately can drift on skis. It simply depends how hard a trun you need to take. If you carve hard, you legs feel it and you grip the slope. if you don't carve as hard, you drift.
Sometimes, due to very high speed, it's almost impossible to carve and not drift - just watch the downhill racers that are going really fast and both skis look like they are hopping. This is cause they are drifting and they can't carve perfectly (beleive me, they are doing everything they can to carve but muscles have their limits).
