Not necessarily. English budgies have a greater chance of getting along with cockatiels than american budgies, but they're budgies, and while they have a similar disposition to cockatiels, they can still be feisty like american budgies.
Although other grass parakeets are a good possibility. Now, a great parakeet to have are bourke's parakeets. I LOVE them. They are so small, dainty and
pink! They are seriously cockatiels in a parakeet body and have been proven to be great company for tiels. Bourke's are smaller than budgies and a lot calmer. Some even like scritches.
