Actually, yes - it will. I just found this out. I had created a league that used the older Gambo DB, and it was located in a separate folder outside of the 'stats' folder (in the main OOTP directory). I then later deleted that old Gambo DB directory, since I had installed his new DB in my main 'stats' folder (having backed up my original DB stuff). Follow?
Good. Because when I booted up the old game that used that old Gambo directory, it stated it couldn't find the old historical DB. Ahhhh, I had deleted it, I realized.
Thus, if you want to use that league, then you'll have to DL the old Gambo DB and create a directory in your main OOTP directory (the one that has a ton of folders in it) named
GamboDB. Do that and you'll be golden. Sorry, I just found out about this db issue.
Here's the link to the DB.

Remember to rename the folder itself as I mentioned above.
