I think I know what your asking and yes, the orientation is important
I mark the tower and mounts with a touchup pen before removal so the orientation is unaltered when putting back the strut to the car with new springs.
If it doesn't align, you need to take it off the car, rotate the mount by loosening the piston shaft nut. Which means you need a spring compressor if the lowering spring has preload. Yah, it sucks.
