Probably not, data can always be lost because the protocol is lightweight and simple, redundancy/replication is intentionally omitted from protocol. Additionally, it's not impossible for the network to have private splinters that are separate from the rest of nostr, intentionally or otherwise. Nostr.band cannot sync notes from relays it does not know about. While it's possible nostr.band, as a centralized service, will capture the majority of network, it's debatable if over time this would be feasible, practical and/or economical. It would be extensive but probably incomplete. Also, some have taken it upon themselves, for better or worse, to replicate data between relays.
