Officially, yes.
But actually, probably not.
If you don't get a static IP, you'll need to look up your external IP and share it with your friends every time it changes.
I've had home networks where the external IP only changed once every year or two.
Technically, your external IP could change every hour or so. Realistically, the way DNS works, it's unlikely to change more than every three days. But I've never seen my external IP change anywhere near that often. Could be I've just been lucky.
If you find that your IP is changing so often that is a pain, you can either get a static IP (expensive) or set up Dynamic DNS services (much cheaper) as a workaround.
I've always landed at "not actually dynamic DNS", where I create a public DNS record for my external IP, and I just change it by hand about once per year when I notice it has changed. I pay about $2 US per month for DNS services, plus about $15 per year for a domain name.
