For PostgreSQL <= 9.6: in theory no, but - as bapt said - switching from
an ICU-enabled build to one without ICU could require rebuilding all
text-related indexes.
For PostgreSQL >= 10: ICU support has become an official feature of
PostgreSQL and enables additional collations and character sets (etc.):

  https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/multibyte.html
Removing that wouldn't go down well :)
