Sure but critics will say that is a poor plot in all but a few scenarios. Even seen here last week was the phone that fell out of the jet when the door ripped off and the phone was still on and in working order. So ya a movie plot could say the person was kidnapped when the battery died but no more lost plane crash movies or boats being lost at sea or people lost in the desert. And with the recent announcement of a nuclear battery the size of a watch battery that can last 28,000 years I imagine if they become commercial we will see those things adopted so no matter what you can always signal an emergency from your phone. Sure there will be some plausible movie work around but Hollywood will definitely need to become creative.
