Yes. The @inject methods only work for classes that are instantiated with 
the object manager itself. Hooks are instantiated with the 
GeneralUtility::makeInstance method.
Therefore the object manager does not work here and you have to create it 
yourself.

I suggest that if you use legacy hooks, then you should use it just as a 
wrapper to call a real extbase class.
$objectManager = GeneralUtility::makeInstance('...\ObjectManager');
$realHook = $objectManager->get('myClass', arg1, arg2);
$realHook->someMethod();

That way you can use the whole magic inside the real hook class.

Best regards
