not necessarily.Power amplifiers and opamp circuits have negative feedback that keeps the output voltage constant even if the load current is zero or is a high current (an opamp cannot have a high output current). Then by definition it is a voltage source and its output impedance is very low.
you can configure opamps (with negative feedback) in such a way that it has very high output impedance - think about all the opamp-based constant current sources.
