Yes. Any machine that provides a network service would need to have RPC enabled. As a result, it wouldn’t be feasible to protect, for example, domain controllers by disabling RPC. However, in cases where a machine does not provide any network services – for instance, a workstation or terminal server – the administrator could protect the machines by disabling the RPC Listener service.
