Given the lack of shared constructors, yes - though you should probably write 
it more like

    auto mutex = cast(shared)new Mutex;
    auto socket = cast(shared)new Socket;

since then you don't have to worry about accidentally changing the base type 
(like you did with the Socket), and you don't have to write the type multiple 
times.
