The portion of the training set might. The actual trained result -- the outcome of a use under the license -- would, at least arguably, not.

Of course, that's also before the whole "training is fair use and doesn't require a license" issue is considered, which if it is correct renders the entire issue moot -- in that case, using anything you have access to for training, irrespective of license, is fine.
