no, they probably wont unless your thermostatic plate has reach opening temperature.

they will get the oil pan, and if you let the car come up to 220* then it might work but the order would be like

1 warm car up (just let it sit and idle)
2 crack open a beer or juice if your not legal
3 shut car down after your plate opens and starts circulating 180*-190* i would wait untill at least 220* so you have warmth when you want to fill everything new.
4 let it sit for a couple min
5 pull oil
*have to lift it to change filter anyways?*
6 fill new oil
7 start it up
8 let the oil fill the cooler
9 shut down and top off.
