Yes, you should via inpa. You can forsure drive without a reset, but it is best to reset since the transmission can learn the new status of clutch pack wear and how everything else is working.

1.ignition on (engine off, you should see your fuel level gauge move to its normal value)
2. Open INPA
3. e60 -> Transmission -> Gearbox Control Module GS19 -> Activate -> Reset adaption values
