As long as you don't spin the turrets, it won't.
If you click the turrets, it would move the scope's optical axis diagonally along a plane above the bore line of sight, mixing windage into the your elevation (and shorting you a bit of elevation), or vice-versa.
PS: I'm assuming the whole scope is canted in its mounts, so that the axis of the elevation erector doesn't pass through the barrel but misses it to one side, that's what would cause a problem with using the turrets. Not sure if that's what you meant.
