In an ideal world, it would be, but there're many reasons why that might not be how it plays out. For starters, it's possible that you'll only be setting your max turbo boost, which is actually the turbo boost used when only one core is boosted, and you won't hit that level on more than one core. Secondly, it's quite likely that the voltage will be decided by the motherboard. This will mean it'll be higher than necessary (in order to guarantee stability) which can reduce your CPU's lifetime. If it doesn't unnecessarily over-volt, then it's reasonably likely there'll be periods when changing between clock speeds that the voltage won't actually be high enough, and the system will become briefly unstable.

The main thing is that when a human explicitly does everything themselves, there're more likely to be able to find the 'sweet spots' of the system, and the more control that's given to the motherboard, the more likely it is that something will go wrong.
