Yes, and you add the node on the way itself, so you know on which road it belongs to. To be more precise, an instersection like this: +-------------------------------------------------o--+ where + is an intersection o the node tagged with highway=stop doesn't require a relation or additional tags because software should be enough clever to understand that the stop belongs to the right intersection, not the left. In such case: +---------o------+ where the intersection on which the stop sign belongs is not obvious, you add a relation linking the stop node and the intersection node. For someone interrested by the subject (I mean, someone who really needs stop signs information), he could setup an application reporting all stop signs present in the db that couldn't be linked to its intersection either because the node is not closed to an intersection or relation is missing.
