No. In some cases (like the mid-atlantic ridge), lava can erupt through rifts instead of the summit of a volcano; in other cases, such as Mount St. Helens, the 'lava' can erupt explosively and destructively through the side of a conical volcano.

What does a side vent of a volcano do?
A vent on the side of a volcano is known as a satellite vent, this can be seen in both Kilauea as well as around Mt. Shasta. These vents are caused by the volcano often times having a plug of some kind at the summit, or for reasons we don't fully understand yet, there is another reason that it is easier for the magma to escape through a satellite vent versus the summit.
