Not if you make sure it's good and square on the nut before you apply pressure. I currently don't have much in the way of tools, this is how I've always done it. Never used a torque wrench, never had one loosen off on me in my entire riding career.
A mate of mine once had a GPZ1100. First time he came to take the rear wheel off, it took both of us hanging off a 6 foot pole on the socket wrench to get that sucker off! :eek That's why I mentioned the point about air guns.
