do I need to be connected to the internet to install WINE on ubuntu?

newbie linux user here.
seeing as there as a downloadable file on http://www.winehq.org/ leads me to believe that I don't need to.

http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#WINE
but looking into ubuntu wiki, I have to 'add repository key' and 'Add repository to apt sources' that have a URL in the code...

this wouldn't be a problem if I had internet connection at home, but I don't...

sidequestion:
so all I have to do is double click an exe or something and it should run like it should on windows, right?
