Its really up to you. Some people have no issue and dont realign.
Probably safer if you do but wont hurt if you dont

Unless you can get them close as possible to where the old ones were and you are satisfied. Then no. But I have changed hundreds of struts on many different cars and have gotten no where close to getting them where they need to be. Anytime I bust the struts off for any reason I go and get an alofhent just to be sure
