Yes, just like Minecraft worlds are so antiquated given how they contain diamonds in deep layers that must have taken a billion years to form.

What a simulated world contains as its local timescale doesn't mean the actual non-local run time is the same.

It's quite possible to create a world that appears to be billions of years old but only booted up seconds ago.
