You could. But if you should would depend a lot on how often you go back to those emails.

Once you export them all to a single text file, it would be like reading one giant digest version of the list. So there is no fast easy way to jump to a single email, or a thread of emails.

If you want to easily be able to go back to those emails at a future time, but don't want to leave them in your mail database taking up room... then you probably want to take a look at Email Archiver. Someone else on the list should be able to give you a link to download it and some assistance on using it. I myself only used it once very briefly eons ago, so I really don't know much about it.
