Not with printed material. All you'll get by scanning printed documents at that resolution is a faithful reproduction of the print screen and a load of moirage.

Only with poor quality downsampling algorithms. As long as your image viewer uses something like the Lanczos algorithm (or better) it's not a major problem. And with higher DPI screens becoming more popular, it is becoming less and less of a concern. I'm all in favor of scanning at 300 dpi.
