Yes, they fullfill the "constant field" condition, but not the "properly
oriented" condition. The field in these cells has still a quite considerable
curl. One can of course minimize that by building a larger one, but
then there are smaller structures with similar properties, when one does
not need the the wideband property of those TEM cells.
