Yes.

What would you like it to contain if the above is not true? If
ORAENV_ASK is YES in that case, for example, you can put
export ORAENV_ASK=@ORAENV_ASK@
in the .in file and set $ORAENV_ASK in configure.ac, and AC_SUBST it.
If you would like the file to be completely empty, then you can use
something like
@SET_ORAENV_ASK@
and use something like AC_SUBST([SET_ORAENV_ASK], [export ORAENV_ASK=NO])
in configure.ac. Autoconf versions 2.62 and newer also allow to
substitute multiline values, so you can also do something like
SET_AND_SOURCE_ORAENV="\
export ORAENV_ASK=NO
export ORACLE_SID=SID1
source oraenv"
AC_SUBST([SET_AND_SOURCE_ORAENV])
and put @SET_AND_SOURCE_ORAENV@ in your .in file.
Cheers,
Ralf
