Even though it's probably not ideal, I do that all the time.
I have a generator sitting new in the box in my shop. I had a $1000 Hobart welder in a box for 2 years. I like to buy shite and let it marinate. I don't give a shite because I don't ever sell anything. I use it until it can't be rebuilt anymore then trash it and have a standby ready to go.
My dad's the same way. I probably have 5 pairs of overalls never worn for years. I can't wear them until my others are trash.

I have a spare never fired.
In my shop and not climate controlled all the time.
I put rotella T6 and turned it over several times to let oil get into the motor and coat the internals.
Drained it out.
Put it back up. A coat of oil should protect the interworkings from any moisture or condensation.

I just remembered the 120/240 volt plasma cutter i bought myself for Christmas, a Hobart 40i for close to 2000 bucks is still in a box and will be until I get totally fed up with my oxy/acetylene rig.
