Inside the VM ?  Yes, it should.  If you look at the output of the dmesg 
after booting and logging into your VM then you should see the type of 
network card you selected in the VB config scroll past at some point.

If you have no interfaces, do check that the card type chosen in the VB 
network selection screen (I use the GUI for this bit) matches a 
supported driver in the O/S you want to run in the VM.  That's the main 
reason I choose the Intel Pro emulation, not because I think I can get 
Gigabit performance via a VM ;)

HTH,
