Likely. Knurling the valve guides to tighten them up was common in the days of cast iron heads without replaceable guides. In old school engines, it worked well enough. When the head was rebuilt, the guides could be knurled if they weren't worn out, or bored oversize and oversize valves installed, or bored out and new guides pressed in.
