Answer:

Yes, as long as the brown discharge is within the days of menstruation, then it is counted as part of your menstruation.[1]

If the brown discharge is not within the days of mensuration, then it is counted as istihadha and the rulings of istihadha will apply; which means one should make wudhu for each prayer.[2]
