Yes, but my main concern was the data from my password manager, which existed elsewhere.
I don't remember for certain, but I may have set my password store to be permanently open, which leaves a copy of the encryption key in the user directory.
Really, the practice should already be, "if you have data you care about, then always have offsite backups".
