Stalling without stall warner going off

I did ask this question in another thread, but I thought I would put it in its own place.

Are there circumstances (and I'm talking about your average trainer here, C152 PA28 etc.) when the plane can stall without the stall warner being activated?

For example, a skidding turn where airflow over the wing with the stall warner may be disrupted?

I've often wondered whether you could get into a situation where the stall happens without the warning going off - and I am just talking about the stall warner here, no other signs such as buffet, high nose etc. etc.

Any thoughts gratefully received.
