Yes. Esky is just the Australian term for it. I think it was a brand name for a portable insulated storage box back in the 70's and has basically embedded itself into the list of Australian euphamisms. Everyone here calls them Eskies. If you said "cooler" to most Australians they'd have to think twice before realising what you meant.
