Possibly, but not necessarily. Both Windows 98 and Windows 2000 support WDM (Windows Driver Model), but Windows 2000 is newer, and drivers written to a newer standard of WDM will not work on systems with older standards.

Generally speaking, hardware parts - including sound cards - are not meant to match a specific operating system, is the device driver that must be designed to operate with the OS. Check your sound card manufacturer's web site for the driver-OS compatibility, you might even find an updated driver for Windows 2000. Anyway, any modern Windows version will try to automatically configure the device once you plug it in and reboot.
