Probably not, depends on where the clog is at and how the dishwasher drain is connected. I wouldn't chance it, but the worst that will happen is the sink will fill with the water from the dishwasher.

Absolutely. Every built-in dishwasher can heat water to a higher temperature than what dispenses from your kitchen sink.

How can you fix a dishwasher that has garbage disposal water in it?
Check the air vent tube under sink make sure it is connected properly or water will back up into dishwasher
Can you eliminate the air vent on top of sink for a dishwasher?
Yes, the air vent (air gap) is very much required!! It prevents water from traveling from the sink drain pipe or garbage disposal and into the dishwasher.
How do you increase water temperature for a dishwasher?
Usually the dishwasher is located near a sink. If you run the hot water at the sink, that will flush the cold water from the hot water line, so the dishwasher will end up getting more hot water during its fill, and allowing the water to reach higher temperatures. Use the "Heated Wash" option to ensure maximum temperature increase. Dishwasher detergent works best around 145 degrees, so the hotter the water going in, the better it will clean.
