Sometimes yes...
I may only share my experience - on the picture is SPO site, not Group. I'm on First Release, have Power BI Pro license, and able to add Power BI web part. That's all what i can do - current implementation requires everyone in tenant to be on First Release. Other words, i'can't add any content to web part.

Feb 10, 2017You don't need to use a Group, but it will require that you share the reports with appropriate AAD security groups to ensure everyone has access to the report. This might become harder to manage long term - Office 365 Groups also allow you to co-own Power BI content among users. By not using Office 365 Groups you run the risk of losing access to those reports if the person who owns them leaves your organization.

Can you also clarify why a Power BI Pro license is required to get this webpart? It does not make any sense to me as other has said in the thread
