It can, yes. Hormonal contraception can cause cervical ectopy -- migration of the kind of tissue inside the cervix through the opening and onto the surface of the cervix. Ectopy (sometimes called ectropion) often is normally present in the teen years and may become more prominent with hormonal contraception or pregnancy.
