Simply - yes. Furthermore, civilizations that arise in that era of the universe will likely have a different cosmology than what we are able to understand today. If you could only see the galaxy that you are in, you wouldn't be able to see galaxies that were forming shortly after the Big Bang, or be able to use supernovas in other galaxies to measure the scale of the universe.

Kurzgesagt did a video on that - TRUE Limits Of Humanity – The Final Border We Will Never Cross https://youtu.be/uzkD5SeuwzM

That is just mind-boggling
