My guess is that the answer is "no".

Output should just show up on the console after you initiate shutdown
from there.  Until the console itself goes away I don't see why output
from an init script would be handled differently from any other script.
Or perhaps you're assuming (but not stating) some other factors that
might have bearing on your question.   If you're not able to see it
on the console, and given that it's a custom script, perhaps you could
write output to some non-volatile location and look at it later.
