Nope, you can do a 180 on any BMX bike.

With a normal rear hub (cassette or freewheel,) you'll have to pedal backwards to allow the bike to roll backwards.

If you get a freecoaster hub, you can roll backwards without pedaling. These hubs come in handy for flatland riding, but are certainly not a requirement for a 180.
