Exclamation VALVE covers Removal

Getting ready to replace stand pipes in my 05 6.0.

Crazy question, Do I need to unhook 1 or both batteries in order to remove the FICM and other electric connections so not to short anything out by chance. got 2 get to the valve covers, one cover is leaking anyway.
