It might. Not that Snape would try to convince Voldemort that he's 
on /his/ side because Voldemort would never believe him. I'm sure the 
little rat has told him about Snape owing life-debt to James Potter 
and all of what happened, hearing it as Ron's rat. Instead, he uses 
invisibility cloak (There's Harry's, Moody's and Crouch's lying 
around, the owners not needing them -- what's to prevent Snape using 
Moody's or Crouch's Cloak? (Harry's just happens to be in Gryffindor 
tower) He has use another man's cloak before -- Potter's, in PoA! So 
I think he might well have gone under invisibility cloak...

1) Snape witnessing Harry's actions might help him to get rid of his 
ancient grudges towards James (and maybe he even helped by using the 
same jinx on them as Harry...- who knows- not the DE's anyway)
2) Hear if Voldemort changes his plans after Harry excapes
3) Capture Pettigrew, both to replace Crouch Jr. as witness to 
Voldemort's return and to free Sirius (but at such moment that 
Voldemort won't notice). This would help further to patch the rivalry 
between Snape and Black...
4) Snape could use polyjuice to play Pettigrew, getting the hint on 
Voldemort's plans later. (Possibly also Crouch, but that's doubtful).
