No, the bov works off the pressure difference between the two sides of the throttle plate when closed. It's the vacuum on the manifold side of the throttle plate in a petrol car that opens the valve to release boost between the other side of the throttle plate and the turbo. More to the point it is unnecesary in a diesel as the boost just runs through the combustion chamber and is used/wasted as normal and can't run backwards through the turbo. Some diesels have something similar to a bov that just acts as a boost regulator and opens up to exhaust excess boost, but no pssshhht sound when shifting sorry
