The deciding factor will be the tongue weight. for a WDH to be effective, there had to be weight to distribute, no weight no need. So if your TT tongue weight is enough to UNLOAD the front axle of the TV. You need a WDH to return weight, and so steering control to the steering axle, and the driver.

However. IF the tongue weight is NOT enough to unload the Front / steering axle. You will not need a WDH.
