Yes. You should use the original receipt, or any other receipt you have stored, that is from that user and relates to this specific subscription. During verification, Apple will send you the latest receipt for that subscription. You could store that new receipt and use that to validate the subscription in the future. But you can also just keep on using that original receipt to verify an account.
