If this is the exact sequence, then I'm not sure. It seems unlikely.

However, if the actual sequence is a bit more involved, then yes, you can
get other results:

>>> import socket
>>> s=socket.socket()
>>> s.bind(('0.0.0.0', 0)); print(s.getsockname()[0])
0.0.0.0
>>> s.connect(('127.0.0.53', 53))
>>> print(s.getsockname()[0])
127.0.0.1
>>>
