Crudely speaking, yes.
For longer periods, some people feel more comfortable with "drop bar" handlebars and some with flat handlebars.
Really, though, it doesn't look like you're considering exchanging you current bike for a different one so it doesn't matter either way.
The only way to know if you'll be comfortable riding your bike for longer periods is to try doing so.
