No, that won't be a problem.

"/etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf" is only a template file and is not used by any application. It's there just to help you so that you can see how you would normally set up the named.conf for a caching nameserver. It's intended for you to set it up the way you want it, then copy it to named.conf.
