Mostly. A percarbonate wood cleaner plus a wood brightener in the rinse pulls out the gray UV oxidation and the mildew. What you get is the natural wood tone, not new-lumber pink, but a clean, warm color.

If the fence was stained originally and that stain is failing, yes, clean, let it dry 48–72 hours, then stain. Stain-grade semi-transparent product gives 2 to 4 years of protection in San Diego sun.
