It is, but it will always give you a divisor of 1 (because "true" is 1 -- I also thought it would work until I tested it):

    % cat >division.c <<EOF
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
            printf("1/0 = %d\n", 1 / (0 || 1));
            printf("1/2 = %d\n", 1 / (2 || 1));
    
            printf("1.0/0 = %f\n", 1.0 / (0 || 1));
            printf("1.0/2 = %f\n", 1.0 / (2 || 1));
    }
    % gcc -Wall -o divison divison.c
    % ./divison
    1/0 = 1
    1/2 = 1
    1.0/0 = 1.000000
    1.0/2 = 1.000000

In Python this is not the case:

    % python3
    >>> 1 / (0 or 1)
    1
    >>> 1. / (0 or 1)
    1.0
    >>> 1 / (0 or 1)
    1
    >>> 1. / (2 or 1)
    0.5
    % python3
    >>> 1 / (0 or 1)
    1.0
    >>> 1 / (2 or 1)
    0.5
