Yes it will.

If /etc/vz/vz.conf contains VERBOSE=1 (or no VERBOSE at all)
vzctl --verbose ..., will result in verbose level 2 

If /etc/vz/vz.conf contains VERBOSE=0, the command:
vzctl --verbose ..., will result in verbose level 1

If /etc/vz/vz.conf contains VERBOSE=2, the command:
vzctl --verbose=0 --verbose ..., will result in verbose level 1,
as VERBOSE is ignored if commandline contains --verbose="number"

<Stupid example>
/etc/vz/vz.conf contains VERBOSE=99
vzctl --verbose --verbose=1 --verbose --verbose ...

verbose=99, +1, verbose=1, +1, +1. The resulting verbose will be 3:
