No. For a temporary work permit they are more likely to ask for language scores if the job falls under C & D. But they may start asking for these scores for all jobs in the very near future.

I don't think IELTS are required for applying for work permit!

I believe for Skill Level C/D, it is required to have "Basic Proficiency" when it comes to English knowledge.

CLB/NCLC 4 is considered “Basic Proficiency” and means that an individual being tested who “meets” CLB/NCLC 4:

can communicate basic needs and personal experience;
can follow, with considerable effort, simple formal and informal conversations;
can read a simple set of instructions, plain language; and
can write short messages, postcards, notes or directions.

- Listening 4.5 Reading 3.5 Writing 4.0 Speaking 4.0 -

As stated in CIC website
Starting July 1, 2012, most Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) applicants for semi- and low-skilled occupations that fall under National Occupational Classification (NOC) Skill Levels C and D will have to undergo mandatory language testing and achieve a minimum standard of Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 4 in English or Niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens (NCLC) level 4 in French across all four categories: listening, speaking, reading and writing.

You usually get your results 2 weeks after you take the test. So your timeline will not be enough. Give your embassy a call to discuss this situation. speaking to someone is better than emailing for this issue.
