Not necessarily. But highly improbable at the macroscopic level.

Apparently there are some quantum effects ("zero energy point") that 
could actually maybe be used for this sort of thing. I didn't believe it 
until a theoretical physicist told me yeah, maybe you could, because 
thermodynamics doesn't apply to virtual particles.
