Yes it will be downsampled.

To downsample by 2, one method would be to change the dimensions of the
image to what you want, but UNCHECK "Resample Image"  Click OK.  This will
change the resolution but will not be downsampled yet.

Then "Image - Image Size" - change the resolution to 1/2 of the Resolution
shown, readjust the Document Size to what you want, click OK.  It will be
downsampled by 1/2.

Continue doing this until the Resolution is what you desire.

Anthony,
    I would like to ask you a question about the proper interpretation of
downsampling. If I scan a 35 mm slide or negative at 4000 dpi in a Nikon
Coolscan 4000 and I want to make a print in Photoshop, I alter the long
dimension to 11 inches (the short dimension ends up at whatever to retain
the proper dimensions). Since this usually ends up in a file size that is
smaller than what it was originally, does this mean the image will be
downsampled?
    If the answer is yes then how do I downsample in powers of 2? do I go
4000 to 2000 to 1000 to 500 to 360, sharpening at each step as you suggest?
