Yes, they will be scaled, provided you design your app to do so. Say, for example, if you have an ImageView/ImageButton, there is a property scaleType. If you don't change it, the images will be scaled. But if you are using that, then, depending on the type, it might or might not scale.
But, I am still not clear about your confusion. The emulators should first of all register as "large" devices, else, there's no point in having the hdpi folder.
