Sometimes. It depends on how large the crack is. There are much better sealers than liquid glass. Glass isn't used much any more and can be very hard to find. If you choose this type of "TEMPORARY" repair I would get one labeled "Block Sealer" as they seem to work best.

What is the difference between a cracked block and a blown head gasket?

A cracked block means that the engine itself is cracked. A blown head-gasket means that the gasket between the engine and the head has blown. Either can be caused by overheating the engine. When an engine overheats the head can warp causing the head-gasket to give out. In some engines the heat cracks the block. If the block is cracked, it's over. If the head-gasket is blown you can always machine the head surface and put it all back together.
