Yes, a goldfish's respiration requires Oxygen in order to work. Without oxygen, the fish's body could not perform essential bodily functions and would thus cause the fish to die. Oddly enough, if you were to put a goldfish in pure oxygen then it would still die. This is because it's gills need water in order to receive oxygen molecules.
