If you are going to rename the column the answer is yes.
If you are going to drop the column that would also invalidate and
drop the index.
If you are changing the data type the index should remain in place.

See <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-altertable.html> in
particular paragraph about 'DROP COLUMN' and 'SET DATA TYPE'.
