Not exactly.
Someone else has already pointed out that registry entries can
be created to gracefully shutdown the database: Doc ID 136214.1
If these are not setup properly, then stopping the services without
first shutting down the database is actually harsher than a shutdown
abort.
This is also detailed somewhere on MetaLink, but I don't have the doc #.

If you stop the service you perform shutdown abort which is not
recommended for cold backup.

Joe,
You can stop the services, which should shutdown the database (for cold
backup).
But, that's not the only option. You can leave services running, and just
shutdown the database (using svrmgrl, or sqlplus), and then do the cold
backup.

My partner sent me a question about services on windows.
when doing a cold backup is it necessary to shutdown the windows
services?, I have no idea as I've not had the nightmare of dealing with
oracle on windoze.
