If those are Windows Mobile devices, then the answer is probably No.

Generally speaking, the smarter the phone, the less likely the phone is to support a full GSM modem interface.

I have never encountered a Windows Mobile device that supports the GSM modem interface for sending/receiving SMS. This is not to say that this support could not be added to a Windows Mobile device, but I do not believe it is part of the reference design.

Similarly, I have not seen a Blackberry device that supports a GSM modem interface for sending/recieving SMS.

Symbian devices are also crippled in this regard ... Nokia Series 60 devices support sending SMS via the GSM modem interface, but not receiving (no 2-way SMS). SonyEricsson UIQ devices (P800/P900/P910/P990) do not support sending or receiving SMS via the GSM modem interface.

Generally speaking, GSM modem capability is found in mid-tier devices. The following thread contains good information and links:
