Not necessarily. I've seen plenty of forks returned to usefullness after being bent that far back. However, judging by the positioning of the front brake shoes I'd say that the fork blades aren't bent that bad, which means the steerer tube is bent. That's a definite replacement. Take it to a good bike shop for an evaluation.
That must have been a heck of a pothole!
