Sort of. It's not the time, but the energy absorbed. Most surge supressors, such as MOV's (metal oxide varistors) can only absorb so many joules of energy. During day to day operation, they absorb many small transients that you are never aware of. Eventually, they reach their limit and decrease in effectiveness or fail to function altogether. Depending on the quality of your incoming power, this could mean mere months, or could extend to several years.
