For a note that is tied merely to avoid it crossing the barline (the
kind that would not have been tied at all in Renessaince music), maybe.

If a choir or orchestra is given instructions "start from measure x",
and measure x starts with a long tied note in one voice, that voice will
usually be expected to join the harmony.
