Not necessarily if you can press down on the old shock easilly so you can slide it off the top. But it also helps with loosening the bottom 2 bolts. Howver, must be careful not to elevate to much due to springs.....
Correction:
As everyone pointed, because it is necessary to take the wheel off to gain better access to the lower bolts, then Yah, jack it is. Although, I seem to remember that turning the wheels may allow good access to the bolts also.
