Generally, no they cannot receive text messages. However, if you received that message due to the phone being out of range, the cell phone user will be able to receive it once they are back in range (service area). Otherwise, if the phone has been disconnected or temporarily suspended it will not get through. Some prepaid phones will be able to still receive texts but cannot open it or download message content until their phone bill is paid/reloaded.
About PPS 6180 message:
This is an automated message from some cell phone providers such as AT&T, Cingular and several others that lets the caller know that the number they are trying to reach is either out of service range (in an area without coverage), disconnected, or temporarily unreachable for another reason.
If you're sure you're dialing the right number and you know the person hasn't changed their number, try calling back at a later time.
