Do you mean if you hit the back button on the browser?  As with all things, the 
answer is "it
depends."  In this case, the browser is the main issue.  You might be able to 
set up certain
header cache controls but it may not work all of the time.

If you are doing form validation, it is better to take the supplied inputs from 
POST and
repopulate the form inputs and complain to the web visitor about the missing 
required inputs.  In
this scenario, the back button is not needed.
