Not unless you wrapped it in an @media print rule.

The page-break-* properties apply to all paged media. In the web browser world, that means that it doesn't apply on the screen, because a web browser shows the text as a linear, scrollable flow without page breaks.

However, spec-compliant EPUB readers should always behave like paged media, because they always break the content up into (virtual) pages.

This is not to say that Kobo necessarily follows the spec mind you.
