Yes, the dialogue is in fact similar to what actually took place.
I have read the ROgers Commission report, which covers the content of
the teleconference very well (as is to be expected). Specifically, the
line "My God Thiokol, when do you want me to launch? April?" DID actually
occur. I'm not sure about the exact wording of the rest. I suggest
obtaining a copy of the Rogers report if you are interested in more
information
