If we're talking about a cold wallet, then yes! You better not store the private keys of the wallet you're using to store the majority of your funds in a computer that accesses the net constantly. There are plainly too many vulnerabilities that come and go with software so it is not secure to store keys in such a way. For small amounts in a hot wallet I think that it would be OK for altcoins but not much more.
Generate a wallet with offline software and store funds there, noting the address's key to keep off the net. Only import in a wallet when you need to withdraw.
