Yes..

alright so will it still work the same muscles as regular dumbell presses because of the change in hand direction. will it still work the median and read delts?

Are you talking about upright rows? I don't think upright rows use your rear delts at all because your arms are oriented totally perpendicular to your body. In the exericse you're showing they are pointed back to some degree and therefore some shoulder extension is involved. As well, your humerus is more internally rotated during the barbell version, which also reduces the usage of your posterior delt and infraspinatus/teres minor.

no not upright rows
the same range of motion of dumbell raises (on the link above) exept with a barbell.

The bar goes through your body?

I think depending whether the bar is in front or behind your body, the focus will shift from anterior to posterior deltoids.

I guess you could do it with a trap bar, but I don't see how it's physically possible with your standard Olympic barbell.
