No they dont.

Once the Lockheed got almost exitnct, I believe the original poster is left with 737. From my memory of the classics, first of all you start with fail-passive system. Then you loose half the electricity and cockpit displays. Also, proper OEI procedure is for reduced flaps that invalidate pitch and cockpit visual reference required for LVO landings. If it is an ATR, similar problems would arise, I am afraid. 800 ft in dense IMC is not a place to sort those.
