Harmonic composition of a square wave

I know you can make a square wave from the sum of sinusoidals, but does
this mean that if you look at a sine-wave that wasn't made by using
sinusoids (perhaps using a switch or an oscillating crystal to turn the
signal on and off) on a spectrum analyzer that you would see all of the
harmonics required to make up the square wave?
