Will Lionel uncoupling track work on Kadee couplers?

Nope.
The Kadee between the rails magnets work really well.
Bob's short answer is spot on - here's why. The magnetic field created by Lionel's uncoupling track is oriented vertically to pull down. Kadee's permanent (and electric) magnetic field is oriented horizontally to pull to the sides, drawing the simulated air hoses away from one another.

Gentlemen,
Perfect explanation. Thanks to everyone that answered. Guess I'll stay with my Lionel couplers on my (I hope) hirail (to be built) layout.
