If my opponent used Quaxly's "Apply Gel" attack against Tinkatuff on their turn, could I use Tinkatuff's "Pulverizing Press" attack and ignore the requirement to flip?
No, as long as the Apply Gel effect is on Tinkatuff you would have to flip heads in order to even start your attack.

Yes, it does. Technically speaking you still flip the coin but regardless of the flip's outcome the damage is not prevented.
