Only if you're able to reproduce during that extra-long span. If not, you're almost in the way: using up resources that should go to reproduction-capable beings.
Jared Diamond in his book Guns, Germs, and Steel tells an ancedote about learning the botany on a pacific island I think. Don't have the book handy to refresh my memory. His informant would answer about what the people ate everyday, and only in tough times, and then with a word Jared couldn't understand. So the guy takes Jared to meet the old woman. She was toothless, her people had to chew food for her but she had been alive when a tsunami had struck the island and she remembered what the people could eat to survive such a disaster.
Now these people didn't have written records. Old people were their knowledge base and they were important. They carried knowledge that could help the tribe survive disasters of rare occurances.
It seems to me that this is a way human longevity could be selected for. Not perfectly but nevertheless it seems possible.
The book is a fascinating overview of the developement of civilization and the way humans have spread across the planet.
