This is how a proxy works:

Proxy opens a local TCP port for the client to connect to
Client connects to proxy
Proxy opens a remote TCP port to connect to the server
Client sends packet to proxy
Proxy sends packet to server
Server sends packet to proxy
Proxy sends packet to client

So yes, the proxy has to open a remote TCP port to connect to the server.
