You don't need an international pass, no. The international passes are to set aside some passes specifically so that non Australians have a chance to go, but you can just buy a regular pass.
Also as per the conditions of the International 3 Day Pass, you need your flight or visa information to pick up the badges
All international badges need to be collected at the Badge Collection Desk in the Foyer Concourse on arrival. Please bring your passport and flight or visa information (to prove you are traveling to and from Australia) together with your email confirmation, which includes a QR code.
Living in Australia probably doesn't count. Also as normal 3 day passes are available and you have an Australian address to have them sent to (remember they won't be sent out until just before the show so make sure you'll be here then), you should be fine buying a normal 3 day pass.
