No, all observers at different latitudes see the Moon rotated at slightly different angles; it doesn't suddenly "flip" as you cross the equator (or any other line on Earth). If you were to travel from the north pole to the south pole while looking at the Moon the entire time, it would appear to gradually rotate from facing one way to facing the other way.
