Yup!

: #SqlNet6 listener startup script
: #!/bin/sh

: $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start

The difference is that when you login as a user, ORACLE_HOME is set, whereas at the bootup stage the variable is NOT set. So... before the lsnrctl line add the following
ORACLE_HOME=/path/to/oracle/home
export ORACLE_HOME

On some systems, you may also need to add:   PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
  export PATH
and even maybe
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

A clever person would automate all this from the oratab entry :-)
