yes, if you hold rudder the airplane will continue to yaw. (on the planet earth, with the airplane (as defined by Miriam Webster) upright / essentially straight and level / in 99.9% of the cases)
LOL.. It should actually be true on any planet with an atmosphere.. Try Austin Meyer's X-Plane - you can design aircraft and test them in an accurate Martian Atmosphere.
