I don't think so.

For me the Info-directory-list looks as follows:

,----[ Info-directory-list ]
| ("~/elisp/gnus/texi" 
|  "E:/usr/emacs/info" 
|  "e:/usr/local/info" 
|  "e:/usr/cygwin/usr/local/info" 
|  "e:/usr/cygwin/usr/info" 
|  "/usr/info"                      ;; has only effect on the Unix side
|  "~/info"                          
|  "/usr/share/texmf/teTeX/info"    ;; has only effect on the Unix side
|  "/usr/local/info"                ;; dito
|  "/usr/share/info")               ;; dito
`----

Take a look at that variable. I am modifying only Info-directory-list
and this works fine for me.
