Service 'network' for years was adjusting machine names only when it was 'localhost' or 'localhost.localdomain' and this was done only when an interface was going up for the first time after a boot. So it is doable and in many situations it is important that you are not get stuck with 'localhost' while assigning a "fixed name" to a machine is not feasible or desirable.
