It absolutely is. Free markets depend on all forms being legally equal. Government owned firms are not since they have special privileges. In communism, all firms are government owned / controlled at some level. Ergo, no communist firm can engage in a free market.

Communist-supported companies do not violate free market definitions. After all, people still get to decide whether they will trade with them.
