Yellow jacket is another name for wasp.

At the end of summer a queen wasp will lay eggs for new queens and drones. When they develop into adults they will fly off and mate. The new queens will find a place to hibernate and the rest, including the old queen, will die as the cold weather comes.

In the spring they young queen will come out of hibernation and look for a suitable place for a nest in which to start a new colony.

So, the answer to your question is: at most a year.

Yellow jackets are wasps, not bees. At most they will live until the end of summer at which time newly-mated queens will find a place to hibernate and the rest of the colony will die as the cold weather comes.
