No, its not necessary to install it in public_html. It depends upon you that where you want it to be installed. If you want it to install it any folder, I would suggest setting up a subdomain like shop.yourdomain.com from cPanel. The subdomain will create a directory "shop" in the public_html where you can install the cart.
