Yeah, it is necessary. The packages that are on your system are linked
against the 11.2 libraries. Once you do the final "freebsd-update
install", those 11.2 libraries will disappear. As a result, every
package you have installed will break. Rebuild everything, then "pkg
upgrade -f" to reinstall all the packages using the newly built
versions. That way, nothing will break after the final freebsd-update
install.
