No, not under standard circumstances.
The COOKIE will be fine, true, but the sessiondata will be
garbaged-collected or time-out by timestamp.
So PHP cannot restore the session and will start a new session.
PHP will clean up old sessionfiles, and PHP decides when a file is old by
using php.ini settings.
I think default is half an hour.

Even when they file was for some reason NOT garbage collected, PHP checks
the timestamp, and decides it is old, and will not use it.
(This can happen if you disable garbage collection by making the chances for
it happening extremely small in php.ini)
To make the original posters scenario work, you need to make sessions last
for weeks, or months or whatever.
Not really a good thing to do, resourcewise. :-)
