Yes, it would. Actually, only the option where one arrives through Shenzhen airport does not allow the use of 24 hour TWOV for travel to Hong Kong and Macau. So, the crucial detail is which airport will one use. If Shenzhen airport is used, then 24 hour TWOV is not allowed for a travel to Hong Kong and Macau, but if Guangzhou airport is used, then this option is valid for travel to Hong Kong and Macau.
In other words, a ferry from Shenzhen to Hong Kong is just a continuation of a transit journey that has started at Guangzhou airport:
Saudi Arabia - Guangzhou airport by plane
Guangzhou - Shenzhen by train
Shenzhen - Hong Kong by ferry
The most important detail is that Timatic does not say anything about the 24 hour TWOV from Guangzhou to Hong Kong and Macau, while it is clearly emphasized for Shenzhen airport that 24 hour TWOV is not allowed if the following destinations are Hong Kong and/or Macau. So, the question is which airport is used as an entry point in Guangdong province.
To be entirely on the safe side or better to say that he/she can travel with absolute peace of mind, the OP can use a ferry departing from Nansha port that is located within Guangzhou city boundaries. This port can be easily reached by Gunagzhou metro and used as a port for ferry departure to Hong Kong. A ticket should be booked through Chu Kong Passenger Transport company website. There are six daily departures.
