Yes. That is one way kickers and punters used to "juice" footballs. Other ways include: heating a football in a microwave or an oven before the games, filling the ball with helium instead of oxygen (doesn't really make a big difference), loosening the laces on a football to give the ball a larger surface area to kick.
