Sure, that makes sense as long as a font-size has been set for the root element. If there is no font-size set on the root element I'm not absolutely sure what would be used but based on my testing of the REM unit and UA default font-size my assumption is that the UA's default font-size value would be used. I need to look into that.
CSS is a non-essential component of web page rendering. Absent CSS and presentational HTML, text is rendered in the UA's default size, which is what is inherited by CSS as the root element size.
