NO That depends on how the struts attach to the knuckle or control arm. On some front wheel drives an alignment is required.
If they are leaking, damaged, the car sits unlevel, or if after pushing down on the car the car bounces, they probably need replacing. Labor costs should be around $125 and the struts are about $100 each. A wheel alignment is recommended when replacing struts and runs about $60.
No, you do not have to.

Possibly could use a wheel alignment, or tire pressure on all tires the same,or it also could be your stabilizer rods need replacing and while your looking at them check your struts and springs.good luck with that.
Depends on the vehicle. Minivans, yes.
Yes, you will need to do an alignment.
It is a good idea to get a front end alignment after replacing and part of the front suspention.
check the tie rod ends. one or more of them may be worn and need to be replaced. any and all front end parts including struts are in need of replacement don't bother w/alingment
Shocks or struts need replacing.
