Yes, of course. Fisheye mapping is not linear hence you can't simply 
shift the images.

If you shoot a (checkerboard) tiled floor straight down with a normal 
(rectilinear) lens alle tiles are the same size. You can shift the 
image by one tile and all tiles will match. This is no possible with 
a fisheye, because the tiles are not only different in size but not 
rectangular, too.
