No, you won’t. A digital-to-analog converter box will allow you to continue using your existing analog TV to watch over-the-air digital broadcasts. You don’t need to get rid of your existing analog TV.

In addition, analog sets should continue to work as before if connected to a subscription service such as cable or satellite TV. Also, analog sets should continue to work with gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products that you’re using now.
