A little bit of tinkering is necessary. You'll need to make sure you use the same numeric user IDs and group IDs -- file ownership is really based on the numbers, and the name is associated by looking in /etc/password. So if the name matches but the number doesn't, the users won't be able to access their files.
I'm not sure, but I think that if you reuse an existing home folder and tell the setup program not to clear it out, it takes care of that for you. The only time I needed to do this, I just made sure that I created the accounts in the same order as before so that they had the same UID/GID, which is probably safest.
