Yes. Just look how the instruction is translated into opcodes and you'll see
how it works. You can use the -d switch for this.

Secondly, there is a function in "exec.c" called "cpu_physical_memory_rw".

That function is used by emulated hardware devices to interact with memory (
e.g. DMA to write and read memory chunks). Translated guest code does not
use it.

Eduardo
