Definitely. Memes may lie dormant for an indefinite peroid of
time waiting reintroduction into a host as long as the dormant meme
exists within an informational matrix. This precludes the necessity of

replication. Our memes may well supercede the biological
realm entirely as in the case of machine intelligences coopting
and propigating both dormant or virulent human memes.
