No, ssl is not required.
https://www.torproject.org/docs/hidden-services.html.en may help you
understand it.

There's no proof that javascript itself can leak your IP address, at
least none that we've seen. It can be used to leak lots of other
information about you, see https://panopticlick.eff.org/ for more
details.
