Once infected, it is always there.
It is possible because there are many viruses that do this. One example is the shingles virus. Another is the oral version of herpes. However, not all viruses stay in the body. It depends on the type.

Herpes can stay in your body for life, but the frequency and severity of outbreaks can vary. Factors like stress, weakened immune system, and certain medications can affect the duration and frequency of herpes outbreaks.
Once your body clears a virus infection, it is typically eliminated from your body. Some viruses, such as herpes simplex virus and human papillomavirus, can remain dormant in your system and reactivate at a later time. However, most viruses do not stay in your body indefinitely after you recover from the infection.

HIV will not survive long outside the body; in most cases if the blood is completely dry, the virus is dead.
Once you have HPV it does't leave the body and is the leading cause of cancer of the uterus.
HIV cannot live outside body fluids/tissues more than a few hours
A virus can last anywhere from a couple of days up to several weeks. It really depends on what kind of virus it is and if the child has had the virus recently or not.
