No. It wouldn't have any effect on the nature or frequency of eclipses. Those depend

only on the moon's location as a whole, not on where it is in its spin cycle.

What would change if the moon's periods of rotation and revolution were no longer identical:

The moon would rotate relative to an earth-bound observer, and over some period of time,

all of the moon's surface would be visible from earth, rather than only the roughly 50% that

we ever see as it works now.
