it could be yes, an assault is causing the victim to fear immediate unlawful violence, so if it is possible that the threat you made could be carried out then it could be an assault. But it wouldn't be say if you called them from Australia and they were in the UK and you said when i get home in 6 month's i'll hurt you, that isn't causing an immediate fear so wont be an assault.

it is legally considered an assault if the person decides to press charges and report you.
