yes, or it may be a dump left over from an incomplete backup (i.e. one that didn't get written to tape).
If you notice that you have several of these, and they actually contain data: su amanda cd ~amanda/ du ./* -sh this will tell you how big the directories are. If they're empty I delete them. If they actually contain something, I then run amflush: amflush myconf and stick in the next tape that it wants.
