Hopefully not, because aviation headsets use noise cancelling mikes. The mike has TWO holes in it arranged so cockpit noise enters into both of them and cancels out where the diaphragm is located.

The mike has to be oriented so that your voice goes into one of the holes and not the other.

It's an interesting question whether the stall warner etc goes into the intercom too. I don't think they do but could be wrong!
