whole production is gone. I mean redo log files, datafiles, controlfiles are gone... There are only archivelog files and last cold backup. Can I recover to point in time?

I too agree with Johnson and stecal. assuming your coldbackup includes the controlfiles, redolog files and datafiles, You can just restore them and startup your database. I guess even you apply recover database kind of commands, you will get something similar to "Media Recovery Not Required". kind of messages.

I am not sure, but logically speaking, It may be possible through using backup controlfile clause to rolling the archivelogs forword. Please NOTE I have not tried this. If it works please let me know. I hope some of the DBA Guru's will speak on this.
