Yes and no, protein is necessary for repairing muscles when damaged, but calories are more important to the process of building muscle than protein is. It is important to note however than if you're trying to build muscle without adding a lot of bodyfat, then increasing protein consumption has been shown to reduce the amount of bodyfat gained in the process.
