No.

It will consider the most recent occurrence of the named job with level Full.

If you have a single job definition doing both standard and offsite backups,
then there is a danger that the differential will be based relative to the
offsite backup.  It might be better to define a separate job for the offsite
backup, using the same client and fileset as the regular job.
