Only if your fate allows such a recourse.
I think you've hit the nail on the head, at least for me. It seems to me that if one's fate (by which I assume you mean determined outcome of a deterministic universe) has brought one into contact with the belief that free will is an illusion, then that person's behavior should be expected to change, if the idea is strongly believed.
However, I do not know of anyone who doesn't act as though they have free will.
