yes but no... the bubbles are also pushed out no matter if recipient is above or below the caliper or cylinder. If you pump out the brake fluid enough with hose sunk into the brake fluid, will be eventually blown from the line, included the hose up to recipient, and bubble will be free to go up into the recipient, but not in to the line while you are pumping fluid with the pedal. The lines along the car also makes some ups and downs and the air is allways pushed out no matter what.

anyway, still with recipient above the caliper or cylinder, hose allways goes down again, getting sunk into the brake fluid at recipient, so, will be the same
