I think it would. Considering Shapeshifters are only able to change their shape (sometimes not even their smell), but not things like their personality, memories, etc (aka anything mental or even spiritual), I think it would be impossible for anything but the most powerful shapeshifters to change their aura/lifeforce/spiritual essence/etc.

So this would be a very good way to bypass both illusions and shapeshifters indeed.

However, I don't think it would allow you to "see" a shapeshifter's true form. Just be aware that the form they're currently using does not fit the aura they're giving off.
