Depends on the album.

If it's a well crafted piece of work that's meant to be enjoyed as a whole then yes it does matter because usually these things have been put in that order for a reason over hours of deliberation & thought.

If the album is just a reason to stick a few singles together with a bunch of filler tracks to sell them again as an album then no, usually I just want to hear the singles anyway.
