Technically, yes. But you shouldn't have to. The Intel documentation I linked earlier also has instructions for manually downloading and installing Intel's firmware.
Looks simple enough.
Code:
cd ~/
git clone --depth=1 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/firmware
sudo cp -r linux-firmware/i915 /usr/lib/firmware
Looks simple enough.
