Yes, parmesan is a hard, dry cheese to begin with, which means it lasts for a good few months in the fridge. True, the longer it's in there, the harder and dryer it can get, but the great — or rather, grate — thing about it is, you can still use a microplane or the small side of a box grater to render it usable.
