No. Many embedded systems use cooperative multitasking (also known
as the "run to completion" model).

Cooperative multitasking is less practical for systems that are intended
to run workloads that haven't been well-characterized in advance, e.g.,
general purpose desktop computers. But where the problem is well-known,
cooperative multitasking can work quite well, and tends to be easier to
debug.
