No you dont. I use torx drive space screws. They work great and I have never split the wood as long as you don’t over tighten.
I use a desalt impact driver and stop once it clicks in soft wood and I watch the joint and stop just when tight in hard woods.
 If you never try to torque them really tight, regular screws work fine. I have also used drywall screws for interior projects with same results

It's not recommended that you use reg wood screws with this type of application. Generally because the screw itself,
no matter the power of your drill, will most likely split through the hole you've made with the jig. You don't necessarily h
ave to use Kreg specific pocket screws, but a pocket screw none the less, is definitely the best way to go.
