Na, if the rotational axis became more 'upright' as it were, or closer the the perpendicular. There would be no change at the equators as the balance of night time and day time would remain as it is now. Roughly equal. We would see the effect of seasonality decrease farther away from the equators. Or equivalently, the 'equitorial band' would be much widened as more parts of the earth would have a more equal day time night time balance.
