Yes it uses a belt that is behind the main drive belt. If yours is missing you will need to remove the main belt, then you can get to the AC belt and install it. The tensioner just pulls down and you install the belt. Then move the tensioner on the main belt to put it back on. If you are not sure how old the belts are, replace them both.
