If you use a cleaner that is put directly into the manifold, it is a good idea to do an oil change afterwards. If you simply added the Chevron cleaner to a tank of fuel, there is no reason to do an additional oil change.
If you are storing a vehicle, it is always better to do an oil change immediately before you store it, not after you take it out of storage. That said, for two months I wouldn't worry about it at all.
