It certainly won't do anything *after* the exec, because the exec says "replace the running shell with /usr/bin/fvwm" (so the rest of the script does not get executed at all). If it doesn't work when run in .xinitrc ahead of fvwm, I suppose you could try putting it in an InitFunction (or SessionInitFunction -- see the fvwm manpage for the difference) in your .fvwm2rc.
