Yes it can.

It can be the cause of digging in too much, but not the cause of hitting fat in the first place.

I know that is a popular theory and you will get a lot of responses here saying so. I guess maybe you should try a SW with more bounce and see how it performs for you.  However I believe that the issues of fats and digs is much more a result of improper technique. Once your swing becomes too steep( digging)  or your lead wrist gets cupped ( fats and thins) then the damage is done and the bounce is not going to save you. 
   Final rec --- get with a  knowledgeable fitter who has the necessary  Vokey's and by all means do this outdoors fitting off of real grass - NO CHANCE of doing this from mats indoors.( TIP - the firmer the turf you are hitting from the more you will feel the bounce. Soft, long, lush grass doesn't give you much feedback)  Don't forget once you find a bounce that works for you from the grass get in the bunker and make sure it works from the sand.
