Yes. Other cannabanoids, terpenes, and flavonoids can vary quite drastically strain to strain, and at least some scientific research (and a lot of anecdotal evidence) indicates it makes a difference.
IME strain tolerance provides quantitative proof of this (if you smoke the same strain for many days/weeks the subjective effects will lessen, if you switch strains you'll suddenly get a much stronger effect).
It's also worth noting that the indica/sativa distinction is almost entirely marketing today, and most everything is a hybrid.
If anyone's interested this is a solid research paper that discusses this in more detail. Sativa and indica effectively mean nothing nowadays, terpenes are the true tell. It also talks about claimed terpenes and whether they existed in products purchased and how often each terpene pops up.
