Not really. The result of key creation is a public/private key pair. It doesn't matter where the command to create a key came from. The output is stored locally in this case. And the output would be different anyway if invoked a second, third etc. time, no matter where from. Host keys are usually created automatically the first time the sshd starts. IIRC you only created user keys manually.
