I have a fiberglass pool that was installed without an overflow tube. Can I add one off the back of skimmer?
Luckily I can gain access because the decking edge is only a foot from skimmer box.
If so, is there specific plumbing material sole for this?

Yes, you can add one. Schedule 40 PVC should do the trick. Doesn't have to be a large line like your plumbing. I would think 1/2"-1" should be plenty with an appropriate fitting into the skimmer. The biggest issue to watch for is to ensure there is enough down-slope to carry that overflow water away. I wish I would've had one done. I can get to my skimmer as well, but it would be difficult to find a good location for the water to run by gravity to given the slope and design of my yard.
