Definitely could but it may raise problems with performance. Imagine if 
you have thousand page under renamed page. It will require to compute 
path for all of them.

In fact I do not use this option at all because it causes UPDATE mysql 
call for each visit. It is not a problem if InnoDb engine is used but it 
is a problem for MyISAM (which typo3 uses for its tables) because MyISAM 
will lock the whole table for update.

If I rename a page I simply flush cache manually.

I have morning coffee at the moment, so I share two pleasures: coffee 
and answering here ;)
