Yes, or other options, see package documentation.

There are new options and new defaults since version 2009/07/12 v2.0.
Especially option `suffix' appends "-tif-converted-to" to the
basename of your image. But the output file is available as \OutputFile.

I would use

\usepackage{epstopdf}[2009/07/12]
\epstopdfDeclareGraphicsRule{.tif}{png}{.png}{%
  convert #1 \OutputFile
}
\AppendGraphicsExtensions{.tif}
