Pluto is a dwarf planet and not a star, so it doesn't generate its own light. It's only visible because it reflects sunlight, just like other planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, and so on.

Do distances within the solar system have to be measured by light-years?

Any distance can be measured by any unit. It doesn't make a lot of sense to measure distances in light years, when it only takes light a few hours to make the journey within our solar system. Light goes from the Sun to Pluto in about 5.5 hours. Which is 0.00062 years, the assoicated distance being 0.00062 light years.
