will double pull on inside door handle open the door?

We are locked out of our 2005 X5. There is battery power and both keys are in our possession however fobs have not worked in a long time. The driver's side door lock was broken a week before (it just turns freely, cylinder must have gone bad or missing). So we are in a very dire situation and I have been trying the procedure I got from Jeff. The question I have is that will it be possible to open the door from inside if I manage to pull the door handle on the passenger side? I don't know how the doors managed to lock themselves in the first place. We have been leaving the car unlocked due to the broken door lock. However two days ago, wife parked it in the driveway and said something about seeing an engine fail safe warning. Upon returning to the car, doors were locked so it must have been done by the ECU I guess. What is the best method to use the inside door handle and/or press the central lock button down? Thanks in advance.
