It will depend on whether you want/need to offer plain FTP, or explicit
FTPS, at all -- or whether you just want TLS, all the time.  Assuming
the latter, then yes, just adding:

   <IfModule mod_tls.c>
     ...
     TLSOptions UseImplicitSSL
     ...
   </IfModule>

should work.  You will also want to ensure/double-check on configuring
your FTPS clients to know that they should use "implicit FTPS"; it's a
slightly different setup for each FTPS client.

Cheers,
TJ
