Not quite. The pixel will usually be larger than the amount that it it shifted.
The image will be a convolution between the pixel aperture (square, but with 
interline imagers and microlenses it is more complicated) and the image. This 
will blur the image, so that you will not fully recover the image that would 
have been obtained with an imager that does not require pixel shifting.
