No. Robot mowers mow autonomously using onboard navigation (RTK GPS, cameras, or boundary wires) without WiFi. WiFi is only needed for remote features: checking status from your phone, adjusting the schedule while away, receiving alerts, and firmware updates.
If your WiFi goes down, the mower keeps mowing on its stored schedule. Some models also use Bluetooth for local control and LoRa for extended range communication with the base station.
