So long as you are from an english speaking country and all your education has been done in English then Yes.

But remember the IO can ask you to take the test if he/she is not convinced about your english language abilities.

Coming from an "English speaking country" will help only if you've lived in it. Alternatively, you may be a native English speaker but your country might not have English as an official language.
