I have never been able to masturbate and feel that I may be impotent. Does my impotence indicate that I am infertile?

Even if you are impotent, you need not always be infertile. Impotence is the inability to maintain an erection during intercourse. However, you may have a normal sperm count. An infertile person may not have an erection problem. But, he can have a low sperm count which may cause inability to produce an off spring.
