Short answer, yes.

If you are recording from an analog source, the quality of the sound card can make a big difference.
Using good quality cables and connectors, setting the gain properly, etc. also help.

I do a lot of my audio related research at the hydrogenaudio.org forums. There are a lot of very experienced and knowledgeable people there.
