Yes! Smoke does not like to go downhill. An uphill pitch can make a very big difference, even with a short piece of horz. pipe.
It is advisable but certainly not a show stopper. There are about a bazillion straight, level thimbles running two or three feet through walls in this country with stoves attached to them that seem to draw just fine. Mine included.
I have never seen the snout on any tee angled up.
Now, angled down is a no-no.
