No. Managed and autoconfig are separate and independent parts of the RA. We
turn the former on and the latter off on most subnets at work, but I
definitely know from experience that if you turn both on operating systems
that support both will usually happily configure *both* a DHCPv6 *and* a
SLAAC address.
