No, you don't need to manually upgrade.

Sometime next week when the core team releases this option, you will be able to upgrade through the dashboard.

If you download v5.6.1 and upload it (uncompressed) to [root]/updates/concrete5.6.1 it will show up in the dashboard as an available update.

Before updating, remember to take a backup.
