Yes, but it's the bold part that doesn't always work.

As I said, there's "cm", "mm", "in" and "pt", which don't have that kind of ambiguity (I mean, their name is clearly absolute), and can be used when an absolute length is wanted. But implementation-wise they probably have the same problems as "px".
