Yes, it would be beneficial. My sister has Retro fitted her entire double storey home with double glazing, upvc windows and doors. A great improvement to noise reduction, heating cooling and aesthetics. Home is on a thoroughfare road in Mindarie.
I wouldn't rely on double glazing alone for that, more for winter warmth and noise insulation, and there's low-e glass too to consider. Things like orientation, external shading, and ventilation play a role in keeping a house cooler in summer.
Mindarie is an Oceanside suburb, the windows get opened up and the sea breeze comes in. In winter and for noise is when the windows show their best value.
