Well, it's not so simple as a "yes" or "no". It depends on several things:

1)The frame size of the original..which if from dvd is usally 720x480..and many time deinterlacing helps.
2)The QUALITY of the original..even dvds can be of low quality.
3)the frame speed the original is encoded in.
and of course
4)Was the ORIGINAL interlaced?
