Not necessarily!  If the TFM file requires another encoding, you
definitely have to re-encode the font.  In this case the built-in
/Encoding isn't used.

A common case to have several encodings for one font is that a font
can have more than 256 glyphs.  In order to access all of them you
need a .tfm and a .enc file for each subset.

However, the csfonts don't need to be re-encoded and actually are not.
Consult the file csfonts.map.

  $ less `kpsewhich csfonts.map`

  Reinhard
