Yes, because some saddles taper more than others. For example i had an Ergon saddle speced at 172mm that i measured its seating area to be 162mm. My seatbones are about same as yours and i'm using one of their other saddles speced at 180mm +/- and it's just right for me for an upright riding. Seatbone measurement aside, there are other aspects to consider regarding a saddle, that's why it's best to try a few before buying one, as you intend to do.
