No. It only stops the next job from being forced to Full.
Bacula will immediately use the new fileset. However:

Say you've added /newdir to the file set. Files in /newdir that haven't
been modified since the previous backup job won't be included in your next
incremental. Possibly not even in the next differential.

So big warning here, your backup might not be complete until your next Full.

A way around this is to do "accurate" backups. Bacula will then detect the
files in /newdir haven't been backed up, because of the lack of meta
information in the catalog.
