It depends. Sorry, I hate those types of answers to, but it honestly does. If you plan to work in test automation or test driven development then the answer will be yes.  Unfortunately you wont be able to hide the fact that you can't code. However, in addition to learning how to code, you should ideally familiarise yourself with SQL (structured query language) and any scripting languages such as JavaScript or Python which can REALLY help jump start your career.
