I can't say yes because it's not entirely true, so the answer is Mostly.

Pages look the same across browsers and operating systems, as long as they use 
the same rendering engine.  For instance, Safari and Google Chrome both use the 
Webkit Engine (regardless of operating system), and so pages will (mostly) look 
identical in Chrome for Windows and Safari for Mac.  All platforms of Firefox 
use the Gecko engine, and all platforms of Opera use Presto.

There are occasion differences, but they aren't common, and I don't happen to 
know any of them off the top of my head, other than the font rendering, which 
is done by the operating system, and not the browser.

Another difference is form elements. Again, these are tied to the  
operating system so you will see a big difference with select boxes  
and buttons.
