Pretty much, although if you were to re-cable an already setup geared bike, you'd not adjust the limits as they're not influenced by the cable but remain a constant within the rear mech. It'd be good practice (and a couple of seconds job) to check the limits before fitting the new cable though.
Slight tangent, have found limit screws useful to help bodge a slightly spinnier single speed for a riders gear cable after it snapped on a club ride, otherwise don't touch once set.
