No. There's a bug open that should alleviate the problem you're having:
5597 service update failure during install
This causes an install failure if the service we try to restart doesn't
exist. We should ignore that failure. Once we do, then when your service
is imported, it will start up (because you've enabled the service by
default) and do all the importing you want to do. This is precisely the
way it would work if you installed onto a non-live image, and then booted
that image.

For any run of "pkg install" or the GUI equivalent, each unique service
FMRI is restarted exactly once, so the fact that the service isn't
restarted in a synchronous fashion shouldn't be an issue.
