Yes. The restore allocates new inodes.

Edited to add this quote from the restore(8) man page:
Code:
     A level 0 dump must be done after a full restore.  Because restore runs
     in user mode, it has no control over inode allocation; thus a full dump
     must be done to get a new set of directories reflecting the new inode
     numbering, even though the content of the files is unchanged.

There is thread about switching from FFS1 -> FFS2.
