Does a broken timing belt on a 2006 Suzuki Forenza damage the motor?

Yes it will cause internal engine damage and it must be replaced every 60,000 miles.
If the timing belt breaks while running, it can cause damage to the valves also. It's something referred to as an "interference" engine design, which seems completely silly to me, but it muse save Suzuki $3 in manufacturing costs or something. You should have the belt changed at the mileage recommended in the owner's manual to prevent having a problem.
The "interference" design is one where the pistons at top-dead-center do not have clearance for the valves when the valves are fully extended. It is not a silly design. It is a design that squeezes as much performance out of the engine as possible. Because of this, the changing of the timing belt is a critical maintenance step that, if ignored, can lead to catastrophic engine damage in the event the timing belt breaks. Don't ignore this maintenance.

How many miles change the timing belt of suzuki forenza 2004?
The Suzuki Forenza Maitnenence Schedule suggests inspecting it at 30,000 mile intervals and replacing it at 60,000 mile intervals. This car has an interference engine. That means that if the timing belt breaks the engine will suffer severe internal damage and will likely have to be replaced. Replacing the timing belt is rather expensive, but doing so may save you an engine..... Your not only supposed to check it at 30,000, but it needs to be adjusted. The belt will get loose after it has stretched and it needs to be tightened back up.

yes!!!! if your timing belt is cracked or split, you should get it in asap! if your timing belt has broken the damage done all depends on what happened to break it/what were you doing when it broke? if you were driving when it happened ( not stopped) there will be extensive damage done if your car was on but you were stopped not as much damage.
