yes. and this is a good command to know. when you telnet someplace, there is a time during which the source waits for the SYN to come back from your target. But suppose you mis-type a command? You wait and wait while the domain-lookup occurs, until the default syn wait time expires.
the ip tcp synwait-time X shortens that wait to something tolerable. no ip domain lookup is another good one, and accomplishes something similar. but in many environments there is reason to have domain-lookup enabled.
