Yes, if SHIELD knew about Extremis *AND* KIllian's plans. You're discounting the idea that SHIELD could very well know about Extremis without knowing anything about it's connection to AIM or Killian's plans for it. How could that work? Pretty much exactly how it has so far on AoS as the only *possible* IM3 connection in the show is Coulson already mentioning Extremis as being "new", but this doesn't confirm where that knowledge comes from. It is perfectly possible that they had only heard of Extremis and what it could do, and the incident from the pilot episode is the first time they've actually seen it.

This is just based on what I've/we've seen up to this point.
