No, the CV axle only allows the power from the engine to reach the wheels. It does not affect the alignment, which is what will cause uneven wear.

What problem with my tires can cause my car to be unlevel?

The tires could be unevenly inflated from one another. Also you could have 'shimmy' where your brakes or axle cause the car to veer slightly, which could also affect tire wear and steering, alignment and vertical balance. Start with properly inflating your tires, then get them rotated and balanced-- with any luck that could be all that you require.
