my rules are loaded by shell script so I just do

modprobe  ip_conntrack_ftp

but it looks like you can do as you suggest

according to the iptables manpage

  --modprobe=command
               When adding or inserting rules into a chain, use command 
to load any  necessary  modules  (targets,  match extensions, etc).
