I imagine that yes.
AFAIK apicall: uses the stdcall calling convention (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions#stdcall), while cdecl: uses the cdecl calling convention (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions#cdecl). So it depends on the function's calling convention which you should use (and not the OS).
