I'm pretty sure that the answer is no and a quick test on a small index with/without deleted docs showed no difference in the scores, using 3.0. But that was hardly a rigorous test and I don't know enough about lucene internals and scoring to give a definitive answer.
Shouldn't be too hard for you to verify or disprove: build an index and throw loads of updates and deletes at it, checking scores as you go. -- Ian.
