No. Saltwater is a solution, salt is dissolved into the water. The salt will remain dissolved in the water until some force like evaporation is acted upon it. That being said, at some point the water will dissolve the maximum amount of salt possible and any additional salt undissolved salt would then fall to the bottom based on the size and mass of each particle while some of the smaller, lighter particles remaining may become "suspended."
