Not normally. You will get a variety of answers on this. In Rock it really doesn't matter. Replace a string when it breaks. No one will know the difference. With a classical guitar, the change in tone between new and old strings is more noticable. But I would not change the strings on a classical guitar until I broke one. Then I'd probably change them all. I have heard that some bands change the strings on the guitars before every gig. This is plain stupid.... just tying to be cool.
