Yes, if they are not protected from moisture, heat and light.

If properly stored, they could last for years. In a waterproof container, they can keep up to 2 years. If stored hermetically sealed and in the absence of oxygen, they can last even longer. See Related Links.

There are fresh beans and dried beans. Fresh beans can go bad since they still have a lot of moisture in them. They can become moldy and grow fungus if kept too long. Dried beans are good for months stored in a cool dry place. They can get stale tasting if kept more than a year or so, but they don't go bad as long as they stay dry.

If the can remains intact and undamaged, the lifespan of canned pinto beans is measured in years. If the can is damaged, though, toss them.
