That will depend on what are "we". If our consciousness arises from computation of neurons, then it wouldn't matter what device does the computation or in what form it is done. If, however, there is something more to our consciousness (some quantum stuff, maybe even existence of souls), then I don't think this question can be answered until we learn more about these processes. I'm myself a materialist, but who knows...
