Yes, both are used. "At the tip" and "at the point" are interchangable.

Seems like "at the bridge" does make more sense. From the musical

Do people say "at the point?" I've only ever heard people say "at the
tip." I wonder what the actual Italian phrase is which tells people to
play at that end of the bow.
