Yes, the placemarks are saved in a different location such that uninstalling and reinstalling Google Earth will preserve the user's old saved places. In fact, if you have both Google Earth free version and Google Earth Pro, they both share the same saved places file.
The location of the saved placed depends on what version of the OS you're running. See related links below to find the saved places file which is named myplaces.kml.
