Uh, no.
Even the most "efficient" nuclear weapon consumes less than 1% of its fissile material. *Any* nuclear bomb is going to scatter the vast majority of its radioactive "fuel" over the countryside.
And while several pounds of vaporized Uranium or Plutonium scattered over hundreds of square miles would be nothing to look forward to, it wouldn't really be that much of a health hazard, overall.
What makes nuclear weapons a real mess from the standpoint of radiactive fallout is actually a side-effect from the explosion itself -- the high-energy neutron and photon spray of the blast itself causes the remnants of the bomb, and a lot of the matter around it (air, water, dirt, etc.) to undergo nuclear changes which cause *them* to mutate into radioactive material as well. For example, there's no Strontium or Iodine in the bomb itself, and not much in the environment, but the nuclear blast transmutates other elements in and near the blast into highly radioactive Strontium-90 and Iodine-131 (among others).
This is why airburst nuclear explosions create a hell of a lot less radioactive fallout than ground-burst explosions -- air transmutates into radioactive isotopes less readily than does the solid matter at ground level. And underwater nuclear explosions are really nasty -- the US tested underwater explosions in the "Crossroads" series of tests, and was astonished at how intensely radioactive the seawater around the tests had become.
A "dirty nuke" is not one that is "designed not to burn all its fuel", since no nuke does, instead it's one that is packed with material that is easily transmuted into nasty radioactive isotopes by the blast itself. Cobalt is one good candidate for such a "dirtifier".
Actually, Strontium-90 and Iodine-131 are fission products, i.e. result from the fissioning of U235/PU239 and subsequent decay of the resulting atoms (need to go back and re-read the Rhodes book...details are a little fuzzy in my brain). If I recall correctly, dust and debris picked up by the blast become radioactive through neutron activation as well as having particles of the actual core material stick to them.
