First of all, a Killer Whale is a dolphin. But if you question was rephrased to something like, "Could a Killer Whale out swim any other member of it's species?" then it would be valid.
Anyway, it depends on which type of dolphin is trying to out swim the Killer Whale. The Common dolphin is the fastest, and thus could out swim a Killer Whale. When it comes to smaller types of dolphin, they are about evenly matched.
