No, you roll it back and fore to even out the stresses on the tyre after making any adjustment.  That is standard practice when using professional alignment equipment, not just home-use kit that started this thread.  When you lift the tyres off the ground and lower it again, the tyres touch the ground when the suspension is fully extended.  The suspension then proceeds to compress until it is taking the full weight of the car.  There is no telling what stresses will develop between tyre and ground, and hence be applied to all the steering and suspension components, during the compression process.

  ... And because of flex in the sidewalls, you really should lift the car off the ground and set it back down after every adjustment
