Yes thats how its done.. Once you have CWM installed you handle all your flashing from there unless otherwise stated...

Normal procedure for a kernel is usually wipe cache partition and dalvik cache and then flash the kernel.

You are going to need to install a custom rom with the hotspot mod built in. It is the only way to get wireless tethering to work without having to pay sprint. Unfortunately you can't stay stock and use it.
