Only if you get OTA updates from your telco. Even then I would assume it will only get updates from the telco that provided you with the phone. Which could be different from the telco that you are currently connected to, especially if travelling overseas.
Doesn't apply if you didn't get your phone from a telco or installed a custom version of Android on it.
any carrier you connect to via GSM can send push OTA to your phone/sim its not an android update but a FTOA update of one of the proprietary blobs on your handset once they have that level access its game over. hence the problematic nature of the closed source baseband drivers and direct memory access given to the modem on most phones.
