Yes - a lot of programmes are available for something like a year or 999 years whatever.
These will not be listed in a get_iplayer search. However they do exist on the iPlayer server. You have to find the relevant page on iPlayer and then use that URL in the Quick URL field and then clicking on Record. For example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03495yn/lets-imagine-a-branch-line-railway-with-john-betjeman First transmitted in 1963, John Betjeman looks at the Evercreech Junction to Burnham-on-Sea railway line in Somerset. Betjeman provides a unique profile of a working steam branch line railway as he travels along the original part of the Somerset Central Railway. Examining towns and stations along the way, Betjeman laments the tragic decline of steam railways. The journey culminates with a stroll around Highbridge Wharf, sentimentally narrated with a poem that sums up Betjeman's despair; 'Highbridge Wharf, your hopes have died...'. First broadcast on 29 March 1963.

The programmes affected are shown in the iplayer section of the BBC website along with all the other programmes but they were added by the BBC some time ago and are not removed from the iplayer service after the normal time period. As such, perhaps they are indexed in a different way or location which is why they don't show up in get iplayer? For example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b007796l/modern-times-streetwise Try finding this with get iplayer. If there is a way to fix this that would be fantastic as the BBC have quite a few of these excellent old programmes. Many thanks for all that the community does. Get iplayer is fantastic.
