No.
1.) Header lines do not have an order. You can not say which is
the more recent one.
2.) X-Spam-Status does not contain an identifier which allows
to check for a specific hosts scoring.
3.) procmail and other mail filtering tools do not check for
an order of header lines as well (because there is no
order).
If you really want, one might think about replacing old
X-Spam-Status lines with something like X-Old-Spam-Status.
In fact all implementations i've seen recently (including
the de-facto standards amavisd-new and qmail-scanner) do
remove old X-Spam-Status line.
