It is entirely possible if you have enough oil back there. The oxygen sensor measures the difference of the oxygen content in the exhausts gas and the outside air. If it's sample is contaminated with excessive hydrocarbons from an oil leak you bet it can screw with it. In fact when you buy O2 sensors for your later model Volvos they come with an adapter harness that is there for that very reason.
