no, they'd be local session musicians hired by the studio. music like disco centres around the studio and the producer - it would be the singers that would have to travel, not the musicians.
a 'name' orchestra though, like the Salsoul Orchestra did gigs and so may have travelled a bit. the musicians on the Salsoul tracks (Vince Montana etc, are the same people that played on all the Philly soul hits)
