No, that’s not how it works in the general case. There are ways to setup a house to back power but it’s more complicated than just plugging it in.

Without proper safeties in place back flowing power to the grid becomes extremely dangerous for line technicians

Which is why, where I live, you have to register your devices with the utility company.
