In general, yes.
But, in the case of sound-2.6.git tree, there are no changes in the
kernel core side.  Thus, if you already built sound driver as modules,
then just rebuild the modules would be fine.

That is,
 - pull sound git devel branch to 2.6.27 git tree
	% cd linux-2.6.27-git
	% git pull git://.../sound-2.6.git devel
 - run "make oldconfig", fix the configs
 - run "make M=sound", which regenerates only modules under sound
   directory.
 - run "make install_modules"
