From the coredump.conf(5) man page

       MaxUse=, KeepFree=
           Enforce limits on the disk space taken up by externally stored core
           dumps.  MaxUse= makes sure that old core dumps are removed as soon as
           the total disk space taken up by core dumps grows beyond this limit
           (defaults to 10% of the total disk size).  KeepFree= controls how
           much disk space to keep free at least (defaults to 15% of the total
           disk size). Note that the disk space used by core dumps might
           temporarily exceed these limits while core dumps are processed. Note
           that old core dumps are also removed based on time via systemd-
           tmpfiles(8). Set either value to 0 to turn off size-based clean-up.

So, yes.

By default the core files are kept in /var/lib/systemd/coredump/

If files are "missing" nothing can be extracted.
