Yes sir! It does matter which way they are installed. That's the point of the diode- to only allow power to flow one direction. Power should flow from a source of switched 12-volt power (usually the ignition circut), through the diode, and to the #1 terminal to exite the alternator. The diode prevents power from backfeeding from the #1 terminal to the ignition circut, which would cause the engine to run on after the ignition switch is turned off.
