No it doesn't. You can install the Google Play Store without jail breaking. I've installed the Play Store on 3 Fire tablets, and I've never done a jail break.

Instructions are on the android Police website. https://www.androidpolice.com/install-play-store-amazon-fire...

The Play Store is a great improvement, it has far more apps and newer versions than the Amazon app store.
