Yes.
I recently had to help a person with a broken wordpress theme. The reason: The theme used a font from a thirdparty host and that host was gone. The fix: Simple, get the font from the Internet Archive and host a copy locally.
When you include assets on your webpage from third parties you always have to expect that they change. Avoid it if you can.
For fonts this is mostly annoying as you can't control your layout. For Javascript it's outright dangerous:
