Only if you believe in actual physical infinity, which is not at all
clear. It's entirely possible that space and time are quantised at the
smallest scale, and that the universe  is closed (though expanding) at
the largest scale.

So there may be a smallest turtle and a largest turtle. Certainly
there is a largest possible system of human consciousness, and a
largest possible system of earth consciousness. But even if there is
an infinite consciousness it is still possible to vow to liberate all
beings, without number.
