Absolutely. A weak o r unmaintained battery causes:

Under-voltage cranking, which heats up the starter

Inconsistent current, damaging solenoid contacts

Frequent re-cranking, which puts pressure on starter bearings and brushes

Keep the battery terminals clean, tight, and free from corrosion to avoid indirect damage.
