    Yes, depending on the mass of the planet, if it is larger than Earth

    Explanation:

    This is because significantly more internal heat from their initial formation, and because heat drives plate tectonics (via the conveyor belt of sinking and rising rock within the mantle), plate activity should be prolonged on such planets that posses a larger mass than that of the Earth's.
