VERY likely.
If you sync calibre library to dropbox, the recommended way is pause Dropbox while calibre is running, then do a full sync after calibre is closed.
Otherwise, Dragons (or gremlins) may set fire to your Calibre Library, which would be bad.
In fact, some people go so far as to use filesync tools like rsync, FreeFileSync, DeltaCopy, or Microsoft's SyncToy, to mirror their Calibre library using one-way sync into their Dropbox. So the main library is always canonical, and it is periodically backed up to the Dropbox folder.
