Do I have to set up a sql server database on a sql server? Or can I do this
on any server

Yes, the SQL database must be on the SQL Server. SQL Server was not
designed to run a database that physically exists on another server.

Yes, for creating a SQL Server database you need to have a SQL Server
engine installed. After the installation
you may need to login into the SQL Server and then you can create the
databases. Take a look into the CREATE DATABASE
command in books online or use the graphical utility SQL Server management
studio to create the databases.
