No you do not need an alternative password file. Once the user is authenticated with squid it is authenticated. SquidGuard does not do any extra authentication. All authentication happens in squid. SquidGuard is responsible for the authorization not the authentication.
You are authenticating them to your NT Authentication Domain and/or server. Just use squid/squidGuard as described in the documentation. Where it says ident_auth, replact with ntlm_auth or smb_auth or whatever your using. It works very well infact. I've used a few different methods to authenticate squid/squidGuard users to an NT Auth Domain. All have worked very well.
