Technically, yes. Though two very wide spread tones. Like black & white
pixels on a video screen bein recorded or two very distinct tones in sound.
They tend to last longer. This is kind of the picture you can think of in

Actually, I would say the most recent data would hold out longer. There is
also called magnetic polarity states to watch out for as they may flip.
