Yes it can, though more typically, the data transfer fails below the application layer. The connection was lost. It could have been explicitly closed, but more likely it experienced a TCP retransmission timeout due to path MTU issues, firewall bugs, or similar. To resolve the issue, the OP needs to run "tcpdump" as documented in: http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#sniffer -- Viktor.
