Seems so, but that's actually different in the user keyword classes.
Now I use this to shadow arguments of the comment macros I use.

(setq font-latex-user-keyword-classes
      '(("shadow-hidden"    (("hide" "{"))      shadow command)
        ("shadow-mycomment" (("mycomment" "{")) shadow command)
        ("shadow-comment"   (("comment" "{"))   shadow command)))

It works just fine, but *you have to restart emacs to make it work*.
When I posted my last messages, I've just reverted the buffer or toggled
`font-lock-mode' off and on again.

BTW, using `M-x customize-option RET font-latex-user-keyword-classes' is
actually the easiest way to go to get the syntax right.
