Yes:
$ uprecords
# Uptime | System Boot up

I must have rebooted it on Christmas day. It has definely not been switched on for
113 days. My SSD reports 949 power on hours (=~ 1 month), and I'm fairly sure I
fitted it before Christmas.

Corrected to what? "Uptime" means "time elapsed since the kernel was started"
and suspending or resuming doesn't really change that. It's also a rather old
and useless figure so I don't see the point in trying to make it more accurate.
For VMs, you could wonder whether context switches on a contended core should
be accounted for (and how)
Just checked my VPS:
13:40:10 up 401 days, 8:20, 9 users, load average: 0.01, 0.06, 0.08
Although I'm not proud of that, it's high time it was rebooted, most likely.
