Almost certainly. There have already been five mass extinctions in the Phanerozoic Eon, so there is no reason to believe there will not be a sixth. Some say we are already in one.

During the Cenozoic era, which began around 66 million years ago, dinosaurs went extinct at the end of the previous Mesozoic era. Therefore, the existence of dinosaurs is something that did not occur during the Cenozoic era.
Yes, the Cambrian Period was before the Mesozoic Era
The modern era that began approximately 65 million years ago with the mass extinction of the dinosaurs is called the Cenozoic era. It is also known as the Age of Mammals, as mammals began to dominate the Earth during this time.
Earth's current era, known as the Cenozoic Era, began approximately 66 million years ago. This era follows the Mesozoic Era and is characterized by the rise of mammals and birds after the mass extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs. The Cenozoic is further divided into three periods: the Paleogene, Neogene, and Quaternary, with significant developments in climate and biodiversity occurring throughout.

Cenozoic
mass extinction: When at least 50 % of the species on Earth go extinct within a relatively short amount of time.
The colonization of land by plants did not occur during the Cenozoic era as it happened earlier during the Paleozoic era.

The extinction of the dinosaurs did not occur during the Cenozoic era. Dinosaurs went extinct at the end of the Mesozoic era, which preceded the Cenozoic era.
No, dinosaurs did not live in the Cenozoic era. Dinosaurs thrived during the Mesozoic era, which spanned from about 252 to 66 million years ago. The Cenozoic era began after the mass extinction event that occurred at the end of the Mesozoic, leading to the extinction of most dinosaurs. Instead, the Cenozoic is characterized by the rise of mammals and birds, which evolved to fill ecological niches left vacant by the dinosaurs.
Several periods of mass extinction
We are in the Cenozoic Era which began after the extinction of the dinosaurs and many other life forms.
