I'd guess so - it usually takes a while (a week?) before the alcohol completely drives out the water from the specimens. I used to get quite good results if I pinned after just 3 days in alcohol but leave them in for weeks/months more and you have more shrivelling. But you'll only know for sure if you try one ;)
