Yes, to answer the concrete question: the record lasts as long as the TTL says, regardless of whether it's deleted.
Clients choose the TTL of each record. For tombstones, it's probably a good idea that they choose a very large TTL. Discussion of TTL is in https://mozilla-services.readthedocs.io/en/latest/storage/apis-1.5.html which covers the BSO/envelope fields; objectformats.html covers only payloads.
