Yes.

If you have:

      IGRP OSPF
  R1-------R2-------R3
  Lo0 Lo0
1.1.1.1/24 2.2.2.2/24

Routing decisions are prioritized and longest prefix match is chosen before
admin distance, right? You will not be able to get a routing loop here
unless you disable split horizon, mutually redistribute OSPF/IGRP, and have
the prefix lengths the same for OSPF and IGRP. You may need to use the
"area range" command. I did this a while back and this is what I got. (I'm
using IGRP because RIP is higher in admin weight than OSPF). See the route
to 40.0.0.0?:

Gateway of last resort is not set

     1.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets
C 1.1.1.0 is directly connected, Loopback0
     10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets
C 10.2.2.0 is directly connected, Ethernet1
I 30.0.0.0/8 [100/1600] via 50.0.0.1, 00:00:11, Ethernet0
I 40.0.0.0/8 is possibly down, routing via 50.0.0.1, Ethernet0
C 50.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Ethernet0
