With some smart TVs, no. For example some Vizio TVs require you to install the Vizio app on your phone (you must allow location tracking) and connect over WiFi before you can even finish the setup process.

What's to stop you from disconnecting it after setup?

I've got newer Vizio's with Chromecasts connected to them... no issues with them being disconnected.
