'Build an orbital station' contract- assemble in orbit?

[FlyingPete]

I've just received a 'build a space station around Minmus' contract. The trouble is, it's asking for an 11-Kerbal onboard capacity including a lab module, which seems like quite a large station to send into orbit given my current tech levels. I'm planning to launch the station in two pieces and assemble it in orbit of either Kerbin or Minmus. Will the game recognise this correctly?

Pritty sure it accepts that yes

Yes it does. I've done it myself before.

EDIT: I think launch 1 that I did was a hab module and launch 2 had the lab and solar panel array, but I don't think order matters.

So my space station is on its way Part 1 consists of a lab and hitchiker storage container, part 2 is a second hitchhiker, 1-man lander can (which I'm calling the control center) and some solar panels on a truss. Each section has two sideways-facing docking ports mounted on structural fuselages. I'd forgotten how wobbly the medium docking ports are- boosting out of Kerbin was interesting.
