Do contemporary non figurative painters and artists actually know how to draw? Do you need to know how to draw to do compelling non figurative art or can you jump straight into abstract work?
you need to do some autistic sight size stuff first so that you can claim to be classically trained when people call you on your bullshit

Many do, yes.

depends on the style of abstraction. fully non-representational work really only requires an understanding of fundamentals like color, shape, line, etc, and not anatomy or rendering. it certainly can't hurt though.
