Not necessarily, shutdown mode (when you stop services) depends on registry setting:
 
ORA_<SID>_SHUTDOWNTYPE
 
I - for immediate
a - for abort

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.
