- absolutely - unstall the wing and ailerons are back on the menu - but the problem is that there were pilots (now dead) who tried full aileron to pick up a wing on an Airbus in 'flight' at less than 46kts and thereby managed an extreme bank angle.

Yaw towards a dropped wing is, of course, an excellent way to get the nose back down in an otherwise uncontrolled power/pitch situation (and as taught for upset recovery) providing height is sufficient, but alpha must be kept under control.
