Will nanobots keep my pilot alive if I use the self destruct button?

If I have the Nano Mech in my squad (or find/buy the nanobot system) and I come into possession of a Self Destruct Button, will the nanobots heal damage for every enemy I kill when I use it, keeping my mech (and pilot) alive?


Yes, healing from an attack that brings your mech's health to 0 will save both the mech and the pilot.
