I doubt it. But a 29" wheel should have a little more "flex" in the spokes than a 26" wheel. For improved rear suspension emulation get chromoly or titanium frame and combine it with a suspension seat (the best being the thudbuster (which I DO own)).
BTW, mtbr.com has a dedicated 29er forum. They're a little more detailed than this board.
