I don't think it's necessary. I haven't heard of anyone doing it. Most of the oil drains into the sump. I'd say from when you get it up before draining, until you're putting the drain plug back on should be 30 minutes or more. That will be adequate time for oil to drain into the sump. It will also flow a bit better if it's warm, but be careful not to burn yourself if the engine is too warm.
