No, an active Primal is not required for its followers to temper others. This is demonstrated in both the Sylph and the Sahagin Beast Tribe quests; in the former, the Tempered Sylphs kidnap Sylph seed pods in order to Temper the newly-hatched Sylphs inside. In the latter, the Sahagin temper captured prisoners; on the quest involving them, they are actively in the process of being tempered and we have to cut down a few who have already succumbed. In neither case was Ramuh or Leviathan active.

Even if a Primal WAS required - Elidibus could have done it, as he is, himself, a Primal.
