Not really. Quoting
http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html#locals (emphasis mine):

locals()
    Update and return a dictionary representing the current local symbol table.
    Note: The contents of this dictionary should not be modified;
**changes may not affect the values of local variables used by the
interpreter**.

It does happen to work it certain cases, but it should not be relied upon.

Cheers,
Chris
