Yes, first ifcfg-eth0 and then ifcfg-eth0:0 ...
# Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet
DEVICE=eth0:0
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.XXX.255
HWADDR=00:01:6C:2B:33:92
IPADDR=192.168.XXX.XXX
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.XXX.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet

And now some command output:
