Technically, no. If it is a regular, water based clay, you can just add water if it gets too dry. Clay is porous, and will soak in that water and come back to a workable state over time. Just keep it in plastic. If you have created something and that gets to the bone dry state, it will be very difficult to get it back to workable consistency without breaking down the integrity of the piece.
