Perhaps not but the only way to find out for sure is to try it.
As long as your lines stay full...
Might be worth while to have a front wheel off and thin pads in
that caliper, pumped up in preparation. Then when the fittings are
connected but still loose, get someone to push the pistons in as
you tighten the fittings- sort of back-bleeding. Don't tighten
all the way till the air stops coming out.
There are probably those who will disagree with this method, and
they have every right to do so. However, being both scroungy and
lazy, I endeavor to minimize the work REQUIRED to get an acceptable
job, and I have saved a LOT of effort by bench bleeding and back bleeding.
Been a LONG, LONG time since I had enough of a brake failure that I
couldn't stop safely (1962).
