That is how my wife and I have been doing it for a few years. She even has the toiletries packed away in the coach so all that is required are the groceries. We also have a "last minute packing list" which includes the meds, cameras, laptops and safes for documents and a couple of other items.
One tip I will provide, clothes that are one or two wearings away from the trash, load them in the coach. I consider these disposable and when travelling after the clothes are worn they are thrown away rather than laundered. These include, but are not limited to, dress shirts that are no longer "suit and tie quality" due to age, old jeans, underwear and socks.
We do occasionally go out to the coach and reevaluate what is packed away due to the changing of the seasons or if we are going to travel through multiple climate zones, for example from Central Virginia to Florida in January or from the flatlands to the mountains in late October or November.
Our primary goal is to have fun and not have the RV become a chore or a PITA to load and unload with every trip thereby minimizing the fun.
