I have a cracked flex plate. Can a crack flex plate make a motor knock or make it sound like it's knocking?

One way to check,is put it in gear,hold the brake and bring rpms up a little,do this in forward and reverse,most of the time if its a flex plate (flywheel) the sound will change,if its a rod again (most of the time) the sound will not change,
