If kept in a warm, very dry atmosphere: perhaps. Under normal circumstances honey is very unlikely to dry out. It will crystalize -- all honey will do that sooner or later -- but honey is naturally hygroscopic, that is, it will absorb water from the air so if left uncovered it is more likely to gradually dilute itself rather than dry out.
