No. With a bad main battery or without a m.b. at all, A GOOD PRAM battery must hold date and time. Perhaps you have got a too old "new" one which will be already dead now. I saw this very often. When buying batteries, ALWAYS check the production-date and never accept any being older then 1 yr., preferably 6 months. Another possibility can be: Battery "does not sit" properly or battery and/or seat are dirty.
