No, that's not necessary. The only files that need read/execute permissions
granted to internet users (anonymous or authenticated through IIS) are the
actual cfm files themselves, and the API module used to connect CF with IIS
(c:\cfusion\bin\iscf.dll by default).

No shares are necessary for running CF and IIS. Here's a useful guide on
permissions for CF and IIS:
