Yes - but all you need to do is to enable ingress NetFlow on your northbound interfaces and ingress NetFlow on your southbound interfaces. 

But I strongly urge you to pay attention to your crossbound traffic, as well as ensure you have traceback to the relevant interfaces for outbound/crossbound traffic.  This means ingress NetFlow on all relevant interfaces.
