No, everyone's heart is different, and respectively person's heart behaves differently beneath different circumstances. Blood pressure is determined not only by the force of contraction of the heart muscle, but also by the tone of the arterial system. When you stretch a heart muscle fiber more, it contracts more. To go and get the details on that, take a course within physiology.
As for BP readings, if the arm is limp at the side, the pressure will be higher than if the arm is held at heart rank. See this:
