In most cases the answer is YES, if you are on probation for a felony conviction you will have a probation officer. If you violate probation that means the probation officer can arrest you without a warrant and put you back in custody. Normally you will have no bail until the judge decides what your punishment will be for violating your probation. However, you have a right to a criminal defense attorney to help you to try to convince the judge you did not violate probation or if you did violate probation to convince the judge not to send you to prison but to release you from custody.
