Eventually, yes. It will also spoil if left inside the refrigerator, it just takes longer.
Most vinaigrettes are made of nothing more than vinegar, oil and some herbs, all of which are shelf stable. The vinegar will never go bad, but herbs can loose their potency and oil will eventually go rancid. The onset of rancidity and the potency of the herbs can be maintained by keeping it refrigerated and the container sealed.

Oil and vinegar dressing is a temporary emulsion. When the dressing sits for a while the oil and vinegar separate from each other. If you were to put this on the salad it would taste pretty disgusting because it would be entirely oil. So to avoid this, you shake the dressing and then add it to the salad so that the oil and vinegar is combined and it creates a good flavour.
