Yes you do
Best (imho) https://wampserver.aviatechno.net/ on your pc.
Install wamp then create a new folder in Wamp's \www folder
Use Akeeba to backup your site and kickstart to unpack and run the backups installer https://docs.joomla.org/Copying_a_Jooml ... _Method.29
On wamp localhost the database will be created during install.
If the update fails just create a second new folder in Wamp's \www folder and install the backup to that one.
I use 01, 02, 03 at the end of the folder names and match the database name to the folder name.
With Wamp
user: root
pass: is left blank by default.
Once updated you can remove the live site and drop the live site's database tables then install the updated site.
