Not indefinitely. Architects are licensed by the state and their stamps have an expiration date which may or may not be renewed. If the plans are submitted with an expired license then the plans need to be re-stamped by the same or another architect. There is also the point that there can be changes in the code. An architect's stamp from 2009 will not grandfather in a set of plans in 2011 or 2012.
Once the plans are approved by Building and Safety they seem to be almost immortal though.

Assume the best and ask questions.
