If you block someone and they '@' you in one of their tweets, then no because you won't see it appear in your timeline

Hi Jazzmin,
The method of "tagging" someone in twitter is called "mentioning" with a "@" infront of your username. When you block someone they wont be able to follow you or "sends you messages."
In fact, Twitter only blocks them from sending you personal message or DM. They still can mention (tag) you. But, you wont be able to see the mentioned(tagged) tweets on your Connect(@) page on twitter.
Unfortunately there is no way to block someone from "mentioning/tagging" you. You may use "Report Spam" as well to report any sorts of Spamming to twitter.
This is another reason why I believe we don't have full privacy on twitter.
Hopefully there will be a change for this in future!

Regards,
Abey (:
