It is possible, but more tests needs to be done to determine the cause.

do the knock sensor cause your gas mileage to decrease, I notice that when I fill up for the week, Thrusday morning my fuel gauge be on empty or near empty. Before my Knock sensor was going bad my fuel gauge on a Thrusday morning would be a lil below half.

It shouldn't

It is possible that, due to the hesitation, you may changed you driving habits, e.g. harder acceleration and that is causing the increase on gas consumption.
