Paul,

No. If you want to create backups that are kept for longer term
than your normal Data Protection for SQL backups, you could
create a separate nodename, for example, SQLSRV10_ARCH,
and back up using that node once a week or once a month,
(or whatever your needs are) and make sure to bind those
backups to a management class that has the long term
settings that meet your requirements.

Thanks,

Del
