No, Actiive Directory is a fine LDAP server and the LDAP authentication
for Squid works fine with Active Directory.

You only need to set up Samba if you in addition wants to use NTLM
authentication (also known as Microsoft Integrated Login), providing
automatic authentication for users using MSIE while logged in to the
domain, saving them from having to enter their login one more time.
