Creatinine clearance is a measure of kidney function. Patients are on dialysis because their kidneys do not function properly thus their creatinine clearance would be very, very low. Some patients may have some residual kidney function but their creatinine clearance would be less than probably 10 ml/min.
if the creatinine level is 2.54 do i need dialysis
No. you dont. Also depends on how old you are...

Kidney Dialysis
Yes you do ...most urgently!
During dialysis, urea, creatinine, excess electrolytes (such as potassium or sodium), and excess fluid are some of the solutes that typically diffuse from the patient's blood into the dialysis solution.
Creatinine is a waste product from muscle metabolism that is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys. In a 76-year-old male with a creatinine level of 10 and a GFR of 10, this indicates severe kidney impairment as kidneys are not effectively filtering out waste products from the blood. This may require intervention such as dialysis or kidney transplant to manage kidney function.
is a creatinine level of 1.32 okay
Serum Creatinine is probably the most widely used measure of evaluating renal function. Creatinine is a non-protein waste product of creatine phosphate metabolism by skeletal muscle tissue. Creatinine production is continuous and is proportional to muscle mass. Some people may find they have a higher creatinine level on the routine test, so what does that mean? Is it severe?
High Creatinine levels normally indicate problem with kidney. Generally creatinine level does not decrease on its own or through medication. However, we run a hospital where we treat this condition through combination of Naturopathy, herbal medication, and dietary changes. Results vary individual to individual and range from some reduction in creatinine level to people able to avoid dialysis and even kidney transplant.
