While DirecTV is scheduled to stop SD broadcast in 2019, it is not scheduled to stop broadcasting from the 101 satellite slot and it will likely still be on the KU band (the signal the domes can receive) or DTV would have to change every antenna on every home in the US. So, the question becomes what will be broadcast and will we be seeing HD from the 101. If so, the domes will receive it.
The initial question asks about SD receiver and you will need to replace that when SD broadcasts end. You can do that at any time you like as the HD boxes will receive SD just fine but your current SD box will not be able to receive HD.
