Yes, that's exactly the way it's done in the examples.

Right, you should post closing to the io_service thread, like this:
void my_connection::close()
{
io_service_.post(boost::bind(&my_connection::do_close, shared_from_this()));
}
void my_connection::do_close()
{
boost::system::error_code err;
socket_.close(err);
}
