Yes, very. It is full of 55-year-old paper and electrolytic capacitors that all must be changed for it to work safely even if it seems to work properly, which isn't likely. There are probably lots of out-of-tolerance resistors that should be changed. Tubes are usually the least of your worries, but there may be a couple of weak ones. You can't find them without testing them.
