Basically no. However, if you don't have an IPv6 router that
sends router advertisements on your segment, you might have to
configure some IPv6 addresses by hand. If this is the case, see
ifconfig(8).

I don't understand what "IPv6 address translation table" means...but
in any case, you don't have to use the route command to configure the
IPv6 routing table in a typical usage. The kernel will configure an
appropriate default route automatically.
