Celsius - yes!
Metric system for science and engineering - most definitely yes!
Everyday life - it's a mix - here in the UK most things are metric, but distances are still in miles, (car) speeds in miles per hour and fuel consumption in miles per gallon. Beer is still (thank goodness*) sold in pints in pubs.
* A pint is the right amount for beer - don't ask me why, it just is.
