Does src tree have to be in sync with installed FreeBSD to build ports?

Is it necessary for the installed FreeBSD to be in sync with the src tree for ports to build successfully?

I might update the src tree to see what is happening but not do the buildworld and buildkernel every time.  Could that hurt for building ports?  Or do I worry needlessly?
