No, this is true only if none of packages involved uses a new library
(including new sonames).  "apt-get upgrade" is forbidden to add or remove
packages, and thus will skip upgrades that need a new dependency.
The message at the end will mention "## not upgraded" though.

"apt-get install X" or "apt-get dist-upgrade" have no such restrictions.
