Of course not. dmesg displays only kernel messages. This is completely
different from messages displayed on the console by any process. You
could even set /proc/sys/kernel/printk to not display kernel messages on
the console.

Obviously bootlogd can record only messages which are displayed while it
is running. See /etc/rcS.d/ for the initscripts order. Specifically, it
won't record messages displayed in the initramfs, before initscripts are
started.
