No you don't.
Technically when you install Power BI Report Server it also installs a private instance of the tabular engine (SSAS) in order to host the pbix models. So you need to make sure your server has enough CPU and RAM capacity, but you don't need to do a separate install of SSAS.
Responsive ResidentHello,
If you have the service, you dont need to connect it to a SSAS, you can create a pbix, and upload it to the service.
