Yes, if the timing chain breaks a valve will hit a piston, causing significant internal damage. The good news is, the timing chain seldom breaks. The bad news is, if YOURS was one of the few that did break, the engine is toast.

if by "interference fit" you're asking if the engine will bend valves and damage the cylinder head if the timing belt breaks, and this is the honda d16 series engine, then yes, if the timing belt breaks, or jumps too far out of time, then you will have at least 4 bent valves...

Do you need a new engine if the timing chain breaks on your 1994 Ford Courier?
Damage is only done if the motor is an "interference" design. ie the valves and the pistons overlap in the same place, only kept from colliding by the timing chain. When the timing chain breaks on a interference design, valves and pistons smash together. If it's not an interference design, the pistons and valve won't come into contact if the timing chain breaks, so odds are no internal damage done.
