Does air crash investigation require being on site?

Three months after MH17 was shot down still an official onsite investigation has not been done. The investigation into the cause of the crash is done using photos and intel the public does not know.

The investigators cannot get access to MH17 crash site because of security. That is what Dutch PM Rutte says

Yesterday he said it is not required to have investigators on the site.

I think this is hard to believe. Can a proper investigation be done on an aviation crash without having access to the crash site? Maybe only when other evidence is available proving it was a missile or a figherjet?
