Not any more.
You can install XCode from Mac App store as an application now instead of an 
installation bundle/image.
Also, the membership in the Mac Developer connection is not required.
Only if you are going to sign apps for Mac or iOS you need the membership.  For 
a casual user who needs a C compiler and finds XCode on the Mac App store it's 
not required.
