Absolutely. Shortening will actually give the brownies a slightly fluffier texture than oil, which actually makes them somewhat dense and gummy.

Crisco brand vegetable shortening, a hydrogenated oil, is less healthy for you than oil as it is a solidified transfat (oils synthetically processed to mimic saturated fats). Lard and butter as well, though natural saturated fats (shortenings), are less healthy than oils as well.
