Yes, you do.
Because make config determines the dependencies.

If speed is what you're worried about, then first do:
make config-recursive

in the port you want to investigate, then do portmaster -n - OR,
specify BATCH=yes and PACKAGE_BUILDING=yes to portmaster as make flags. But 
note that that will accept a set of default options, as defined by the port 
maintainer.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
