You don't _need_ grid, but it does make it simpler. You technically don't need flexbox either.
In grid you can define this layout in a single construct. Whereas with flexbox, you're defining several nested flex elements to get there.
You can think about the entire layout as a unit, rather than the horizontal parts first (sidebar/main content) then the vertical (header/footer) or vise versa.
