Depends on your configuration. Here with F7 and GNOME I could not stop
xfs because fonts would be missing afterwards. E.g. Emacs fails fatally:

$ emacs
No fonts match `-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-100-iso8859-15'

$ xterm
Warning: Cannot convert string "nil2" to type FontStruct
xterm:  unable to open font "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-15", trying "fixed"....

And stopping a running xfs sort of "kills" X until the X server is restarted.
