Yes, indirectly: At the Planck scale (10-35m), a quantum foam of virtual particles appears and annihilates itself. While these particles are ephemeral, for a moment, they are there, with mass. Mass affects spacetime, bending it slightly, changing the path of anything travelling through that spacetime. Think gravitational lensing, though on a much smaller scale. Light travelling long enough, through enough foamy roil, will deflect a little, randomly. The cumulative effect would be to "blur" any images of sufficiently distant objects. Or so the idea goes....
