No, but you should have these basic requirement for ethical hacking is:-
Good knowledge of Computer Hardware ,Operating System-linux, Win etc.-
Learn Networking Basics (As it will give you a deep knowledge regarding protocols, LAN, WAN, Wi-Fi, etc).
Basic programming(Command atleast one language whether it is C, Python or anything else).
After these 3 things you are ready to learn ethical hacking and you will not face difficulty anymore to dig into hacking concepts.
