You could, but you don't have to. I think most people today assume there is a cocktail hour.
The last few invitations I got did not mention the CH. But some samples I saw said things like

Adult Cocktail and
Dinner Reception
at time
place

Or

Cocktails, dinner and dance
at time
place

I just liked the flow of just saying reception better and as I said before I think most people realize that there is usally a CH first. If not well I figure they will be happily surprised!
