Kerosene is a collection of hydrocarbons derived from crude oil a nonrenewable resource which will run out. So at the moment Kerosene is not a renewable source of energy.
However work is currently underway to make use of various plants which can be used to create other hydrocarbons such as ethanol and break these down to basic molecules then through a process known as reforming it is possible to make these simple hydrocarbons become more complex ones such as the components of kerosene.
So in the future Kerosene along with all other hydrocarbons could become renewable and become a source of burnable energy as new chemical techniques are formulated.

What is the time autonomy of a kerosene lamp?
The time autonomy of a kerosene lamp is all dependant on the type and age of the lamp. Another big factor in the time autonomy is the size of the lamp as large lamps will either need more fuel or will not last as long.
