Yes any feature as far as I'm aware can have a start date and end date so can show the changes over time. As can be seen in London (https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/#map=16/51.5108/-0.1086&la...) where the shape of the river changed when the Embankment was built in 1869. As far as I'm aware there is no reason why changing coastlines couldn't be mapped, though it is a lot of work to draw in a long length of coastline.
