Is this possible?

Only the WMTS endpoint is exposed on this service and WMS is unavailable.

[GIS] Masking WMS (Esri Oceans Basemap) layer in ArcGIS for Desktop

I finally found the answer: Yes, you can mask a WMS.

I used the 'Clip to Shape' > 'Outline of Features' and 'Exclude layers' options in the Data Frame Properties. I also used the 'Advanced Drawing' masking feature. Those two options are tricky to use. I learned that: 1) A WMS can be masked by using 'Clip to Shape' but not 'Advanced Drawing'; 2) With respect to 'Advanced Drawing', in order for a layer to mask another, the masking layer must be visible (checked) in the table of content; 3) If you're going to work with these two functions, I recommend to do this one step at a time. Start with 'Advanced Drawing' and once you are satisfied with the results, then set 'Clip to Shape'.

Try what this example says. I was facing the same problem with chrome. Set navigationMode to css-transforms and force3DTransforms to true.

I had also tweaked this:

esriConfig.defaults.map.panDuration = 1; // time in milliseconds, default panDuration: 250

esriConfig.defaults.map.panRate = 1; // default panRate: 25
esriConfig.defaults.map.zoomDuration = 100; // default zoomDuration: 500
esriConfig.defaults.map.zoomRate = 1; // default zoomRate: 25
