Definitely no! The sound of the original format — whether vinyl record, cassette tape, 8-track, reel-to-reel, CD, MP3 or MiniDisc — remains the same. The recording that is now on the destination format — CD, cassette tape, MiniDisc or MP3 — is what has been restored. In other words, the noise (hiss, cracks, pops, etc.) that is on the original remains on the original. The hiss, cracks, pops, etc. are only eliminated / reduced on the destination CD, cassette tape, MiniDisc or MP3.
