Yes, you normally need to restart the freshclam daemon.  That's true
generally of most daemons on Linux but there are many exceptions where
the daemon will, for example, check timestamps on configuration files,
and/or get notification of changes some other way, or even hard restart
as a result of a regularly scheduled operation such as a 'cron' job.
