No, you don't have to. Playing Makedonia I had absolutly no problems killing the KH bodyguards or Spartiates with Phalangitai Deuteroi. You need to have them attack you, preferable on a hill, or use two units of Phalangitai Deuteroi, one pinning them frontal and the other one attacking from the flank (deep formation and guard mode off for flanking phalanx).
