I had my old old kitchen cabinets primed n then painted, and also the woodwork in my bathroom, I just painted it white n it's fine
It would depend on the finish that is on them, how much wear is on them and what you want to refinish with.
Take a look at what other home talkers have done. https://www.hometalk.com.categories/painting-techniques/interior/cabinets
Always clean before sanding. Always sand to remove any shine and create a tooth for paint. Prime with a good stain blocking primer, paint, and seal.
Sanding creates a better surface for a new covering to hold.
