No. MSN Dial-Up Internet Access is not required for an msn.com email address.
msn.com email works as part of a Microsoft account over any active internet connection, including Wi‑Fi, broadband, or mobile data. If MSN Dial-Up is canceled, the msn.com email address is retained and can still be accessed through Outlook.com. The change is that MSN Premium features or the MSN Explorer interface are no longer included.
