Exactly. The Daleks' aren't actually robots; so as long as as the symbioites can get inside the Daleks' out shell, they're set. Of course, the problem there is that the symbiote could only merge with the Dalek itself, not the Dalek's casing, and a Dalek without it's casing is a mostly harmless green blob. Sure, they can still sucker you to Death, but against your average Marvel hero, they'd be down in ten seconds flat. I don't think a symbiote would do a Dalek much good, unfortunately.

Doctor Who — Long Way Around: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13536044/1/Doctor-Who-Long-Way-AroundThat doesn't change the fact that they are villains who are you know, trying to take the planet for their own and would utterly destroy the Daleks.
It does beg the question, though, of whether or not the Daleks would simply orbital bombard key targets into oblivion. And also whether or not the Daleks were jobbing to the Doctor or were the universe-shaking threats that they're hinted to be when the Doctor isn't around (or the Brigadier ).
While individual Daleks wouldn't have a prayer against even mid-tier Marvel heroes, they've got the technobabble toys to throw down with the cosmic-level players in Marvel. Weaponized time-travel that does not follow the Marvel branching-timeline rules, erasing things from existence, universe-jumping... it could keep things interesting, you just wouldn't be able to write it as a straight slugfest, since in an 'infinite white void, bloodlust on' scenario, the Daleks are pretty much totally hosed unless they had absolutely overwhelming numbers, and even that wouldn't guarantee their victory with players like Dr. Strange, the Scarlet Witch, Phoenix, Thor, or Reed "Deus Ex I-just-built-this-Machina" Richards on the field.

What if it was a cosmic Annihilation-type story instead then? One that kept away from Earth?

A lot of Marvel Characters can reflect/redirect/absorb energy. I think it would just end in the Daleks getting hoist by their own petard. Merging symbiotes would also be completely OOC, as well. The only time they've ever merged with something else (a human), there were only 5 daleks left in the universe, and even then 4 of them dissented and ended up killing him for corrupting the daleks' 'purity'. Seeing the last dalek left merge with a symbiote for a final fight would be awesome though.

What's a signature?Daleks vs Marvel would end up being Avengers vs Titans Two Electric Booagloo.
Mileena Madness
You could if the symbiote merged with the actual Dalek inside.
