Yes, they do. Even our lowly Fiat 500e's consumed tires much faster than any of our ICE cars.
It's not just raw power, which a Fiat 500e doesn't have much.
It's the fact that with an electric motor you have 100% torque at 0rpm starting from a standstill, which is when there is most opportunity to briefly spin the tire. Tire wear is much reduced when driving in a straight line at a constant speed.
