Depends very much on the fungus.
On the whole though, yes.
First: much of the decomposition of matter is dealt with by fungi which allows it to enter back into the system, feeding much of the food chain.
Second: many if not most trees (and many other plants, orchids being the best known) enter into a symbiotic relationship with fungi which assists them in gaining nutrition from the soil.
Third: yeast has been a major influence in human culture primarily for it's bread and booze related uses.
Fourth: many early belief systems and spiritual traditions were (and are) linked to fungus based drug use, as is a large proportion of art, literature and music.
