It will depend on the crime being charged. In Arizona, felonies have a limit of seven years, though some crimes have no limit. And being arrested is different then being charged.

Can you be arrested for a crime you committed 3 months ago?

Certainly. The so-called "statute of limitations" begins at the time of the commission of a crime, and ends either when a person is charged (but not necessarily arrested) or the time set by statute has run out. For misdemeanors, the statute of limitations is usually one or two years (depending on the state). For felonies, the time limit varies between three years and forever, depending on the state and the crime. Once a warrant is issued for the arrest of a person, the statute of limitations has no effect. Bench warrants and arrest warrants are valid until they are served or withdrawn.
