Yes.

If you have trouble due to sharing, you might need to disable the
service and reboot to clear out the use lock on cygwin1.dll.

Note that you should remember that the dll may no longer match the
header files if you're doing development.  You may want to install the
larger snapshot package that include both the dll and the
headers/libraries that go with it if you plan on developing against
this snapshot (i.e. to test, of course).
