In order for book marks to backup do you have to be logged into two different devices?

Firefox creates backups of your bookmarks in a folder on your computer. If you want to check its contents, it's named bookmarkbackups and stored in your currently active Firefox profile folder. The backups are compressed, i.e., unreadable, but I have a tool to convert them to a web page if you need something readable or want to confirm what's in them.
