do I have to wait until boiler is cooled down to a certain tempeture this summer before I would do that?

to a hot water holding tank to at the same time,
+++ Yes, boiler water goes through a coil in the tank to heat the water as in:

Fresh water is in the tank; but the boiler water is inside the coil or heat exchanger. Domestic water is separate from the boiler water.
