Not strictly. they could both be multiples of sqaures.
For example, factorise 3x3 - 48x.
Neither term is a square but they do become squares when the common factor, 3x, is separated out.
Also, when rationalising surds, one would use the difference of two squares but (at least) one of the terms is not a square.

What is the main difference between squares and rectangles?
Squares have four sides of equal length. In rectangles, the opposite sides are equal to one another. In both shapes, the internal angles are all 90°.
How do you factor 81w squared - p squared?
81w2 - p2 = (9w + p) (9w - p)because 81w2 - p2 is the difference of squares. To factor the difference of squares, square root both terms and write the binomial twice:(9w ? p) (9w ? p)Now, to replace the question marks, one binomial has to replace it with the plus sign, while the other binomial gets a minus sign:(9w + p) (9w - p)
