Yes.

Be sure to make good backups before you rebuild world+kernel, in case you
screw it up.

This goes especially for the settings in the files in /etc and
/usr/local/etc. I tend to keep a copy of the files in those directories
in my home directory under revision control, with an install script. So
I can easily install my changed configuration files.
