No.  Dependents cannot claim an education credit or refund.  You have no need to file an amended return*.  A better question is: do your parents need to file an amended return to claim a tuition credit based  on their dependent-student's 1098-T

 

*A possible exception is if box 5 of the 1098-T exceeds box 1.  In that case you MAY have taxable scholarship to report.  So you would need to amend your 2019 return to pay additional tax, not get a refund.
