No all the elements in HTML do not require a end tag. For instance void elements and single ton tags do not require a end tag to be valid. 

example: 

<area>, <base>, <br>, <command>

No. Some tags in HTML doesnt require a closing tag however it is a good practice to have the closing tags so that the html page is compatible with future W3C standards regulations.
