Not quite. When Jin entered the Susano'o Unit and wielded a sword made from Hihīrokane, he introduced himself as Susano'o and cut down the "enemy of the world" together with Terumi, so that he would be officially recognized as Susano'o by the Master Unit Amaterasu. This made it so that the Susano'o was properly succeded (this time), hence Terumi lost all rights to it (seemingly including the portion that previously remained in it), making it so that Terumi was only recognized as one of the Six Heroes. What's more, a portion of Hakumen's soul has remained in the Susano'o Unit, in the same fashion as Terumi's previously, as he is shown answering to Trinity (while sinking into the gate), although it's not enough to move it.

As to why a portion seems to always remain in the Susano'o Unit, it is unclear. It might be that it's similar to how it is with the Master Unit Amaterasu and it's imitation that was used in Kushinada's Lynchpin, where a living soul has to be melded into it in order for it to work, even before a proper user/wielder/inheritor arrives/is chosen/recognized.
