Yes and no. If you use OOo to open and edit an MS Office (MSO) document then
the OOo dictionaries and thesauri will be available. But if you use MSO to
open and edit the same document then the OOo dictionaries and thesauri will
not be available. MSO has no knowledge of the OOo dictionaries etc. The
converse is also true: OOo has no knowledge of any MSO dictionaries or
thesauri.

Also, even if you use MSO plus the ODF plugin to open/edit an ODF document,
the only dictionaries etc. available will be the MSO ones.
