Yes, though you might not have to. Check out the existing classes, i.e. 
/Devices/Server/Windows and /Devices/Server/Linux or /Devices/Network ...

However, for specialized devices, you would want to create your own 
classes or subclasses + edit or create your own Templates. For instance 
we have
/Devices/Network/Wireless/Aironet for our Cisco access points, and 
/Devices/Server/Windows/NativePoll for our Windows servers using the WMI 
Zenpack to read perf data (rather than the default SNMP Informant)...

Generally, there's a bunch more to Device classes than just making a 
blank one.
