yes you should change your master cylinder and propotioning valve/metering block. the disc brake setup requires more pressure and volume to work correctly and to be safe. Also the braking bias is slightly different from disc to drum. I would swap the parts now to be on the safe side after all, you only want to use your brakes to stop...right?
