Not really. It'll certainly give you some nasty output when having  
twosided layout and \flushbottom in effect - which you ought to have for  
twosided.

Try running this:

\documentclass{book}
\begin{document}
\chapter{AAA}
\pagebreak
Normal text here.

\chapter{BBB}
\clearpage\noindent
Normal text here.
\end{document}

The best way is get the internal chapter macro to clear the page as one of  
the last things it does. I'd strongly suggest looking at the memoir class  
or the KomaScript ones as they are much better suited for real use than  
the book class.
