Definitely, clamav is only updated via jessie-updates/stretch-updates
as it needs a current runtime to be able to parse all malware signatures
(independant of vulnerabilities in clamav itself).

But you need to make sure that wheezy is not updated ahead of jessie/stretch,
otherwise you'll break upgrades.
