No. The 'root=' argument is passed to the kernel during boot. LILO
does not understand filesystems, and therefore does not care what you
specify as the 'root='. The kernel image specified in the lilo.conf
with 'image=' must be readable by when LILO is run to write the boot
sector at the exact location specified by the 'image=' argument.
