All modern digital modelling amps I know of, and a few other non-digital ones, do have emulated headphone outputs - this is what to look for if you don't have an amp already.
This isn't an idiot question by the way - it's not obvious when you don't know that the speaker is an important part of the 'right' sound of an electric guitar amp.

No, certainly not a 'idiot' question. The whole home recording world has come on apace since the advent of PC recording (peeps COULD have been doing it en'mass for years with hi fi cassette but few did. My son was one 30 years ago but there were a few technical challenges and I guess few had an 'Electronic Dad!").
Then, you cannot just bolt on a headphone/line out onto a valve OP stage without a load or do something clever as (cough!) did for a certain 5W amp.
