That used to be true, but it changed in (IIRC) 2011 when the new T2 facility opened. Both DUB and SNN now have full pre-clearance (immigration and customs) and inbound flights using these facilities are effectively domestic arrivals.
Of course, the whole arrangement is now in jeopardy thanks to recent political developments.
