Default Wood stove water heating?

Those that heat DHW or other uses to a storage tank with a wood stove can tank be over heated if stove is needed for space heating more than heating hot water? I know a pressure relief valve is an important part of the hot water loop but if tank reaches a max temp should a "shunting" loop be needed to prevent relief valve from releasing water if you still need to space heat?
