Yes and no,

If you're using the store for the first time with an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method. After you create the account, you can change your payment information to None.

If you're creating a new Apple ID, you might be able to create an account without entering your credit card details.

The above info is in this link: If you can't choose None when you edit your Apple ID payment information - Apple Support
