No, not necessarily. I have entries like this:
%%(diary-anniversary 1981 03 17) Somebody's birthday (%d years)
and the agenda view shows "Somebody's birthday (19 years)"; the actual
heading for this entry is ignored. In fact, I have a large number of
such entries all in the same headline.
However, I don't know if other diary- functions work the same way.

I use the org-recur [1] package for this. Very nice for repeating
events.
