Yes it would have because if Virginia had rejected secession, the prospect of Lee in command of Union forces rather than Confederate forces would have presented major problems for the Confederacy. The South would have lost a major economic and political asset, the state of West Virginia would never have been created, the war would almost certainly have been shorter. Interestingly, such circumstances might cast some doubts on how determined the North would have been to end slavery permanently.

The classic example of this divide is how, traditionally, history curriculums approach the Civil War.
While this is less the case today, 25-50 years ago, if you grew up in the South, you would have learned about the "War of Northern Aggression"
If you grew up in the North, you would have learned about the American Civil War and the South's history of slavery and the war to end the slavery.
"Traditional" History is often written by those that were victorious, so it is remarkable to see how in the modern era voices are being heard that would not have been traditionally heard.
A global society means that history is more nuanced with more perspectives present at the table of history.
But there is still a long way to go. Californians will spend lots of time learning about Sutters Fort while Pennsylvanians will learn about Fort Duquesne.
