Indeed (unless you find a broken resolver that fail to send the SOA).

I was thinking of another issue: if the goal of the OP is to find
which domain names are on the same authoritative name servers, asking
the NS may not be sufficient, if a name server is known by several
names (for instance, a.nic.sex and a.nic.sucks are the same
machine). So, the OP may have to do a resolution of nameservers' names
into IP addresses, as well.
