Sure. A bug tracker exists to help developers improve software. So when a bug report is "Invalid", it's not because nobody ever experienced the bug, it's because the report isn't useful in helping developers improve the software. (Maybe "Invalid" is not the kindest word for this, but that's a tangential issue.) "Incomplete" is a warning that the report isn't useful in its current state, and will soon be treated accordingly unless it's made more useful.
