Yes, you do. Take a look at the DataSheet. It clearly says that the
default d is 1.

However, it is always better to specify the target to avoid mistakes
and to add readability to the code.

Also if you use the standard include files provided by Microchip (or
the gputils tool chain), then you can use the W and F instead or their
numbers. If you do that you also advance your code as you can
understand it more easy.

So your code would be:

If d=3D0, the results are stored in the W register - ADDWF  FSR, W
If d=3D1, the results are stored in the f register - ADDWF  FSR, F

...if that makes any sense...
