in my view,
NO
but if the keyword density changed then it can effect (bad/good).

Yup, If you are going to update content, It's going to fluctuate for sure.

Updating your content actually helps it get initial SERP changes but after it gets matured it again gets its position back and even rank better in many cases.

Updating old posts can actually increase your SERP ranking if you added more useful information to the content, or perhaps made the content longer.
Brian Dean and Neil Patel have talked about this extensively in the past.

I believe it depends on the amount of changes you’re making. If they’re too drastic, the search engine might register the page as completely new content and thus assign it a new rank. However, if you’re just going back to change minor things and make it more useful, I don’t see why it would dip in rank.

Search engine ranking is the position at which a particular site appears in the results of a search engine query. Each page of the search results typically lists 10 websites, although they are sometimes augmented with local listings, videos and images.
