This depends on your requirements. If there's a chance that another thread has modified the same object in the database from the time you fetch the data and until you call save(), then it's not necessarily safe. This would depend on your use of transactions, whether the data has been submitted from a form etc.

You should audit your code for these things if race conditions are a concern to you.
