No. There's no requirement to notify the officials prior to a drop kick. There's no reason to blow it dead, simply because it hits the ground. If it's a foul, such as the ball rolling on the ground when it's kicked, then you flag it. If the kick is legal, then there's no foul, no flag.
Would it be a good idea to notify the officials? Yes. Prior to the game, the R asks the head coach, "Coach, do you run any unusual plays that you want to tell us about?" But he doesn't have to tell you about it.
