Not exactly. Whilst the GSM spec states that it should happen, in the UK
you cannot make emergency calls on any network other than the one for which
you have a valid SIM card inserted in your handset.

Additonally, any emergency number can be entered on the keypad even with
keyguard activated, so 999, 112, 08 etc. all can be entered.
