Alistair,

If you set auto-enrollement up properly...yes

fspg.asp

"Automatic Computer Certificate Enrollment and Renewal
You can use the Automatic Certificate Request Setup wizard (available from
the Public Key section of the Group Policy console) to configure
autoenrollment for computer certificates. Autoenrollment is not available
for user certificates and does not function unless an enterprise CA is
online to process certificate requests. You can configure autoenrollment
for Computer, Domain Controller, and IPSec certificates....."
