I read on the internet that once you get them cold and dry it doesn't matter what the gas surrounding them is. They can be in air, nitrogen, CO2, or a vacuum and it makes no difference, but cold and dry are a big deal.
For some seeds like peas there is such a thing as too dry. It makes the seed too hard and it has trouble sprouting. Given that I would say that a vacuum is bad since it would tend to cause any remaining water to evaporate.
