very quick question regarding comm slot modem versus corresponding modem port

is the serial port ever available when card is not being actively used or is the port basically 'dead' for as long as a modem card is physically installed and detected?

(and I realize that I wonder if its indeed the same behaviour between nubus-based and pci-based slots, but I may as well as actually be asking about the latter hence this choice of forum category)
