In short, yes it can.

A recent study in a Cairo institution, involving 39 patients over the course of 11 months, suggests that the presence of the fungus among haired parts of the body can cause the follicle to be damaged or blocked, causing hairloss.

Althought the study said nothing particularly about hair atop the head, similiar tinea infections do cause balding or thinning when present.
