No there's no difference, or at least i've seen no reports that it affects the outcome.

The only advantage of not running and just strafing is that the target will also stand still and fire at you if capable and is easier to board it by space walk. But the outcome of the cap itself is not affected.

As long as your ship gets out of the line of fire as soon as the marines are aboard, else you run the risk of it getting toasted while your marines do their thing :)
