No. The normal Old Hungarian substitute was /c^/ (<cs>), and apparently
/t/ in some cases, but I can't give you any concrete examples right now.
There is a whole monograph about early Slavic loans in Hungarian:
Ronald Owen Richards. 2003. _The Pannonian Slavic Dialect of the Common
Slavic Proto-Language: The View from Old Hungarian_ (an UCLA IES monograph):

The author is our fellow member -- unfortunately, in lurking mode at
present. But if he's reading this, he will perhaps enlighten us.
