For electrolytic capacitors, yes, as ignoring their polarity can damage them.
by changing the polarity of capacitor of single phase ceiling fan can we change the direction of rotation from anticlockwise to clockwise
The electrolytic capacitor can only have voltage across it in one direction. Failure to comply will result in catastrophic destruction of the capacitor.
To determine polarity in CAPACITORS:Electrolytic capacitors are often marked with a stripe. That stripe indicates the NEGATIVE lead.If it's an axial leaded capacitor (leads come out of opposite ends of the capacitor), the stripe may be accompanied by an arrow that points to the negative lead.Sometimes, you can look to the length of the leads as an indication of polarity. The positive lead is usually longer but be careful if you're reusing old or 2nd hand capacitors - the leads may have been trimmed.Tantalum capacitors are often marked with a '+'sign.http://www.westfloridacomponents.com/polarity.html
A Polarized capacitor means that the capacitor is polarity sensitive. if you were to connect the capacitor incorrectly the capacitor would blow up. A capacitor that is marked as being polarity sensitive will have the negative lead labeled usually with a white strip. These capacitors can only be used in conjunction with a dc source. Always consult a professional when installing electrical equipment.

A polarized capacitor will be permanently damaged if connected to the incorrect polarity.

they do not have any electrical property that is polarity sensitive

The capacitors those are polarity sensitive are called electrolytic and tantalum capacitors. These capacitors are labeled as positive and negative.
It will either explode right away, or work for a short time then explode. Note though, that the capacitor's polarity only applies to DC voltage. Because AC flows through a capacitor, if there is no DC offset, it matters not which way the capacitor goes.
You need a multimeter that is capable of testing micro Farads (uF). The capacitor is normally stamped with this rating. Should get a reading within +/- 5% of the rated value. Some Caps. are polarity sensitive so make sure your +/- leads from your meter are correct
