No, but it *is* what we recommend.

If you get your Thunderbird from your distribution (or ports tree, for
the BSDs), then please also get Enigmail from the same place.
Downloading it from the web site is meant for people who have installed
Thunderbird from the Mozilla web site, or for people who don't mind
possibly running into problems with incompatibilities between their
distro-provided Thunderbird and their website-provided Enigmail.

We've had this guidance in place for at least eight years now.  Maybe
someday we'll change it, but we haven't yet.  :)
