Top surgery is a phrase used in the transgender community to mean a variety of kinds of gender-validating surgeries that can be done on the chest or breasts. This is as opposed to bottom surgery, which is any kind of gender-validating done on the reproductive organs or genitals.
Some nonbinary people call themselves transsexual and seek bottom surgery, and some don't. A nonbinary person doesn't need to have or want bottom surgery in order for their gender identity to be valid. This is true for transgender people of all kinds. Bottom surgery is an option that a person can take on their transition path only if they personally want or need it.
