No, see the below quoted extract from the rcsfile(5) man page.

RCSFILE(5)                                             RCSFILE(5)

       Dates, which appear after the date  keyword,  are  of  the
       form  Y.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss,  where Y is the year, mm the month
       (01-12), dd the day (01-31), hh the hour (00-23),  mm  the
       minute  (00-59),  and  ss  the second (00-60).  Y contains
       just the last two digits of the year for years  from  1900
       through  1999,  and  all  the  digits of years thereafter.
       Dates use the Gregorian calendar; times use UTC.
