If I can get a US emergency passport in the UK, can I use it to travel to Poland and Spain?

Poland and Spain both require passport validities of 3 months beyond the period of stay.
Emergency passports are issued for varying validity periods, usually up to six months and occasionally more.
If you get an emergency passport with validity three or more months beyond your planned stay then you are fine.

Many countries do not allow emergency passports for entry, however it appears that both Poland and Spain do.
According to Timatic (the system most airlines use to verify visa/passport requirements), both countries do allow the use of emergency passports :
Passport : Passport required.
Passport Exemptions: Nationals of USA with an emergency passport.
From a validity perspective, all documents must have a validity of 3 months beyond your period of stay.
Passports and other documents accepted for entry must be valid for a minimum of 3 months beyond the period of intended stay.
Keep in mind that if you intend to enter the Schengen region via another country then you will also need to check their requirements as they could potentially be different (although in general most of the Schengen countries have very similar requirements)

Update: I received an emergency passport from the US Embassy in London - the process was very efficient and took slightly more than an hour. Passport control entering Poland took maybe 5 extra minutes scrutinizing my passport and asked why it was different, but then let me enter the country with no problems. Also no problems traveling on to Spain. Coming home to the states the automated passport scanner at the global entry kiosk in PHL wouldn't scan a passport without a chip, but it allowed me to manually enter the data.
