Sure, The track switching often used the spinning flywheel to move the head. That put extra load on the flywheel, if the belt was marginal just for listening, then changing tracks could stop it. As long as the friction spot on the capstan is still in good shape, get a belt. You may have to get it from one of those places where you measure it and they put it together for you.... Sometimes you can't get originals.... I need one for my Akai cassette deck I have not been able to find a source for.... Dual capstan reversible so it will be a pain to measure it.
