If your machine is running 24/7, you do not need to run Anacron. The
reasion for Anacron is to run the cron jobs that didn't run because
the machine was turned off when they should have been run.

Unless they have changed the way Anacron works, you need to have
Cron running in order for Anacron to function correctly. But you do
not need Anacron running in order for Cron to work correctly.
