That should work, yes.

However, it's strange that your copy of shorewall should be doing that. 
Are you using the package from Fedora Extras? I am, and the initscript 
is called S25shorewall, which is safely after network startup.

If that's the package you're using, the following may help:
# chkconfig --del shorewall
# chkconfig --add shorewall
# chkconfig shorewall on
