No! If you live in zone 11, you can grow Aeonium plants outdoors easily.
Water will be your primary issue, as the only zone 11 places in the US are either very dry or very humid. If the issue is dryness then the solution is to simply water more. If you live in a humid area then you'll have to protect your plant from overwatering and excessive rainfall.
Sunlight will be another issue as Aeonium plants are prone to sunburn. You may need to plant these in a somewhat shadier spot in your garden. Just make sure it's not too shady or your plant may stretch. Shade cloth may help tremendously here. It'd be a good idea to read our article on sunburn so you know what to look for if your plant starts losing its vigor.
