Yes. Of course that also entails converting all the AIFFs to AACs and  
erasing the AIFFs from disk. The conversion takes long enough so  
that, when I got started on this, I sensed that it would be a little  
more obnoxious than this roundabout method. (The whole procedure  
involves two long waiting steps -- recording the AIFF from LP in  
Sound Studio and running it through ClickRepair -- and some busywork,  
bookkeeping steps. The AIFF->AAC conversion is another long waiting  
step, and that's what decided me, perhaps wrongly.)
