Chris,
Yes and no, it all depends what is programmed at the remote end.
I have this in my .htaccess at my root www folder:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.mysite.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L,NE]
</IfModule>
This forces HTTPS and adds www if it is missing. Writing http://www.mysite.com or mysite.com brings up https://www.mysite.com every time.
