Yes - they will also make sure that they're netted to the proper frequency in the process, as well. They will change any necessary caps (and use the proper type so that big temperature changes have minimal effect) to allow a good +/- range of the coil or capacitor to net to frequency, depending on the element type.
Sometimes you can do it right the first time. Or you can do it twice.
