Yes, that will work just fine. Understand that the 15Ω resistor will dissipate a little more power, and get a little hotter. If pushed hard, it would fail first. But if both are 50 watt parts, you'll be able to lean on it pretty hard without getting into trouble.

Oh, and by the way - just an FYI - if a Zobel fails, it won't cause the speaker to blow, it will just cause an annoying upper-midrange peak.
