I see a logically meaningful distinction, here:
My vote is thus no.
Here's an analogy. You own a security guard business. There are two types of behaviors:
1. You warn potential security guards of the dangers associated with work. You tell them that the hours may be long, and the pay not so great. Perhaps they have a family who relies on them, and would be in dire straits if they were harmed. You encourage them to think through the decision in detail, and suggest that being a security guard is not for everyone.
2. You overwork your employees, giving them longer hours and overly strict rules. You dock their pay and refuse bonuses. Even though they are confirmed as committed to the job, they become driven away because of your brash and inappropriate behavior.
He is accusing you of acts analogous to (2). Holding that (2) is wrong while (1) is acceptable, is not hypocritical. In fact, one could make a strong argument that not doing (1) will inevitably lead to weak converts who lack true dedication, and will dilute the faith.
You may disagree -- but it is not innately hypocritical.
