No.  The backup (pram) battery maintains the pram settings when both 
the main battery and external power are AWOL.  It has nothing to do 
with main RAM.

As you put more memory into the Mac, you may notice it takes longer 
to BONG.  That's because the memory self-test takes longer to 
complete.  Again, nothing to do with the backup battery.
