YES, but only if you have sever Allergies to mold or yeast in which case you shouldn't be eating them anyways. The age of the product has no effect on its safety if it was in a sealed original package, since without air the yeast can not activate and the mold spore will never grow.
The only documented case was from a 19 year old that ate two pancakes made from a mix that had been left open for over two years. His companions all stopped after one bite because they didn't taste right ,but he finished off his stack of pancakes. He had a history of Asthma and severe mold allergies.

Is it ok to eat expired yeast?
If you are using the yeast in bread, then if it is expired it may be dead and your bread will not rise. You could make a sponge of the yeast by mixing it with warm (not hot) water and wheat flour; if the sponge becomes foamy, your yeast is fine to use. If you are eating it as a dietary supplement it depends on the form. If it is in a dry form, it probably is okay if it is slightly expired. If it is in a wet form, if the yeast is dead then harmful organisms may replace it and it should probably be discarded.
