Both are correct. Which form you use depends on its context within the sentence. Where the phrase denotes an adjective, then "longtime" and "long-time" are correct. Otherwise the phrase is split and "long time" is the more appropriate form. See the following examples.

"A long time ago in a galaxy far away."

"Our family hasn't had sushi for a long time."

"Grady greeting his longtime friend at the airport."

"Stacy is a longtime fan of the Jets football team. GO JETS! <3 (:"

Maybe the following sentence will help . . .

"It has been a long time since I have seen my longtime friend, Tom."

The word can be spelt as a single word or hyphenated, though it is probably easier to spell it as one word so that it doesn't get confused with usage in a phrase such as "a long time ago".
