1955 home interior walls are all "turned on the flat" and non structural. Should turn them during reno?

Just bought a 1955 home that needs alot work. Im planning to DIY most things except plumbing. All my interior walls have a painted 2x4 at the ends and the studs behind the drywall are "turned on the flat"(I hope this is the right phrase, the long face is what the drywall is attached to). There is also no insulation. I am doing one room at a time and want to know if it is worth it to turn the studs the right way?
