Short answer: No need for daemon in your case
Longer answer: the Dbus Daemon mode is used to run signal-cli as daemon in the background. To communicate you would either have to write a program utilizing Dbus or use the dbus-send command line tool. The only advantage in your use case that I could see: In daemon mode signal-cli is already running (takes a while to come up depending on system performance), so it could be helpful in case you want it to react fast and/or need it often
