It would seem not.  The SA's psak that if one missed an asher yatzar
until the next time one must say it twice, is based on the din of
making up missed tefillot.  And with missed tefillot, once two zmanei
tefillah have gone by it's too late to make them up.  So it would seem
that just as a BT (or even stam a person who slacked off for a day or
two) doesn't make up all the shmone esreis that he missed, so too he
doesn't make up all the asher yatzars, but only the last two.  (And
Ashkenazim follow the Bach's psak to say it only once.)
