Not when actually adding the fluid. But, in order to get an accurate reading on the level, the transmission needs to be at operating temp with the engine idling in P or N, after having previously shifted through all gears. And the car needs t be parked in a level location.

In some situations, you might need to run the engine briefly during the refill process to transfer fluid to the torque converter.
