Not if the reader does fonts the right way.

When the CSS specified font does not have the glyph, then the readers should attempt to get the glyph from the font type specified.

Code:
body p {
  font-family: 'Whatever Font without Euro', sans-serif;
}
If the Euro is used, since the font does not have that code-point, it would be fetched from the default sans-serif font if it has the code point.
