Almost certainly. Doing it all in a stored procedure or likely even better a single query will remove all of the latency involved in going back and forth between your app and the database. Insofar as the queries you are running separately access similar data, a single query will be able to do that work once. There are other potential benefits (a smaller number of queries reduces planning time, for example).
