In theory yes, if one of the primaries shorts out o 0V (chassis) then you can loose one leg of the DIS coil.

One possible method would be to measure the resistance from the spark plug end of the lead to 0v (chassis), it should be Meg ohms (easy to do coz you dont need to take anything apart!).

Also worth double checking the plug lead resistance.....2K -8K across there length

I'd stick to the same part number if I were you. Been burned trying that trick myself!
