Does a repo with git lfs integration needed git lfs installed to push and pull from a repository?
Is it possible to have git lfs installed on only the machine that is pushing the changes?
Using git-lfs to interact with repositories with lfs-stored large files is only necessary if you need to read/write those large files. Without git-lfs installed, the large files will be checked out as text files with the LFS metadata; as long as you don't need/touch those files, everything should continue to work for those that do have git-lfs.
