Yes, the egg in mayonnaise will go bad. Regular Mayo needs to be in the fridge so one can with reasonable certainty guess that even with the addition of lime juice it should be in the fridge.

However, the addition of the lime juice may affect the storage life. The lower pH may allow it to stay good for a little longer. Acidic foods are less likely to grow really harmful things (which is why people rarely get botulism from sauerkraut). Or conversely, the stray lime pulp and any bacteria/fungi picked up while squeezing the lime (like if you touch the inside of it or let the juice drip over your fingers) might help the mayonnaise to go bad sooner.
