Only if you are pipelining and then only on the second request, and
pipelining on the first request is generally a bad idea anyway. So no.

It's just means that the initial request (not it's response) is limited
to HTTP/1.x wire format and that you can't pipeline if the protocol
change means pipelined requests can not be properly parsed after the
protocol change.

And if HTTP/2.x preserve initial request-line structure compatibility
with HTTP/1.x like it should then future requests to the same server
should be able to assume the server is HTTP/2.x capable from start,
until rejected, and you can even pipeline during the protocol upgrade if
desired.
