Yes. Since the coil is run at full voltage when starting 12 volts may be too much for a 6 volt ignition coil. It would be at about 8 volts when running. There is a starting resistor.

Why name no volt coil?

Following a power cut, it's important that motors aren't allowed to self-start when the power is restored, as that would represent a serious hazard. So, a no-volt coil is a part of a motor-control system that ensures, in the event of a power cut, the control system disconnects the motor so that it cannot self start.
