Yes. The Antigen test drops off at some point. But the PCR test can remain positive for 6-8 weeks. This is why the CDC has said to stop testing after you test positive. You are OK to interact 5 days after main symptoms (Fever, body-aches, etc.) stop.
Back in August 2020, they said that continued testing doesn't help. Some places were requiring 2 negative tests before return to work. That could take 6-8 weeks.
