Yes, and I had Xorg -configure produce a suboptimal config for me just last night (for perfectly valid reasons as far as it knew, looking at the log; the 1024x768 res for the laptop I was setting up didn't match its idea of available vert and horiz sync rates). A run of system-config-display let me tell it it had a "generic 1024x768 LCD display" and all was well. Personally, I prefer "Xorg -configure" first, and system-config-display second. Your call.
