No, disabling images breaks pixel tracking. One way to quickly sanity check a mail client's priorities is whether it gives you the option to disable images by default.

Some clients that don't allow you to disable by default: Polymail, Gmail on iOS, Inbox (Google) on IOS

If it's free, you're the product...
