No. Unless it is DIRECT SUNLIGHT (if it can give you a sunburn, it will damage your screen). However, if it is behind filtered light, such as a window, then there is no real threat of damage. Owners manuals for plasma TVs will say not to put them in areas where the sun will shine on them, even through glass, but it is merely to limit their liability for warranty; if there is an issue, they might say that it was a result of it being in direct sunlight, when in fact it is not (those villains). I worked for Panasonic, so I know all the legal planning that goes into those guides.
