Not necessarily.  The actual directory where you point TMPDIR is not
important.  It can be anywhere on your system.  The important part is
not to edit DJGPP.ENV unless you absolutely have no other way to solve
your problems, and even then it is best to ask here.  In this case,
setting TMPDIR in the environment (e.g., in AUTOEXEC.BAT) to your RAM
disk is all you need.

But then again, there are no particular reasons to remove
C:\DJGPP\TMP, either.
