Not necessarily. You can create whatever tablespaces you want and then create the users (with a non system default tablespace). Then you ccan import using FULL=Y and IGNORE=N. The advantage being that you don't need to know all the tablespace names, the disadvantage being that you have no control over where the objects go (they'll all end up in the default tablespace) if tablespace names differ.
