You've got your answer in the posts above. No, clip ons are not required to lower the bike. They are required to keep the bars at the same height relative to the seat, however.
The blocks shown in the second photo in InvisiBill's post do exactly what you're after. They leave the handlebars at their regular height, while the rest of the bike lowers. Therefore, the bars are higher relative to your seat, which makes for a more upright riding position.
Does that make sense?

Oh I worded it wrong because that IS what I originally asked! I asked if they'd stay at the same height (original height BEFORE the bike is lowered), not same height with the seat. I'm still learning vocab here
And that does make sense. Thank you
