No, you can have one version of the HTML and use style sheets to present the information differently for different uses (a printed manual, online documentation browser, or help text).

That assumes eww-mode has reasonable stylesheet support (which one hopes).
We would need to standardize how info-using-eww-mode (and similar documentation readers) selects a stylesheet other than the normally-default one.
Note that for a web-site you might want to do some extensive munging
or post-processing of the kind that wouldn't be appropriate to build into a makeinfo-like tool. You might also want to include dynamic content
such as "latest news" on your web site but not in a documentation reader.
