Depends what the old stuff was. Mostly yes... to start with, the WOD will fuck you up enough that you really won't be able to effectively do any other workouts.
As you progress, you can start adding weight workouts maybe, or other metcon stuff on rest days (martial art training).
Ideally, you should probably start with a strength program (starting strength) for a few months, which will give you a solid foundation both physically and in terms of form and movement. Then you can move over to crossfit having your form already established... and work from there.. maybe doing some strength work on the easier days.
Either way, if you can perform the Crossfit WODs as RX'd in times comparable to the pros, you're already in immense physical shape... but you can still specialise in one area (lifting, swimming, running) etc. with specialised workouts in addition to the WOD.
