Probably not, as the prescript isn't notified. The prescript should not be refreshonly and specify a sensible "onlyif" or "unless" check, so the original design is alright. (I'd use rpm -q if possible.) You can save reduncancy by merely adding Package { require => Exec["bash prescript"], notify => Exec["bash postscript"] } to the original code.
