It won't do any good, because:

# ls -al /sys/module/nouveau/parameters/noaccel
-r-------- 1 root root 4096 Mar 30 14:37 /sys/module/nouveau/parameters/noaccel

Permissions of '400' in these case mean that its impossible to change
this module parameter via /sys (and changing them to 600 won't work
either). So, to answer the original question - yes, the reboot is required.
