No, you wouldn't need to. If, for example, you have 1000 Guild Essences (not points), alchemizing a Bronze trophy would leave yours at 950.

I believe there will be an announcement of the alchemy deadline days after it ended (like in the previous season) before the Essences (and Squad/Individual points) are reseted once again.
