I don't think changing struts will change alignment, but lowering springs will.

if the struts have slotted holes on the bottom..it will need to be aligned...if it has round holes...then no.
if you are lowering it..definately align it! i recommend an alignment at least once a year anyway

You should alway re-align your car after doing suspension work.
