strictly taken, yes. It is also assumed that this will be a rather frequent situation, you have many cave systems where it is known that certain cave entrances or other objects belong to a cave system but not exactly how they are connected. Even long after it is known to researchers there may not be anyone in the OSM community abler or willing to map them in detail. As the cave may have other cave-wide attributes there may be other reasons to have a relation for it.
