Most likely, yes. The AAC valve controls your idle by letting small amounts of air into the engine. If it is malfunctioning, in all likelihood, it will be letting unmetered air into the engine off idle. Either that, or it is closed and forcing the ECU to work hard at maintaining a decent idel. This would likely make low end throttle response a bit poor.
