Is this sufficent for an i9-9900k proc?

Yeah it should work just fine for any processor. Paste normally won't be the thing holding any performance back.

Do I need to purchase this if I'm getting a new CPU and a liquid cooler for the CPU?

It depend on how much you trust on the existed thermal paste in new liquid cooler. If u think it not good, you can buy this one
