Not really. I assume it's probably due to 3 reasons:
1) New compilers come out, and Max uses those. When you change the compiler, everything changes, including plugins. So, I think it must be a real pain to create something readable by a previous version (again, not an expert on this so I might be wrong)
2) Since Max works with plugins, somethings simply do not exist in older versions, so it probably wouldn't read the files right.
3) They now lauch a new release every year, and this makes people buy it (this one everyone knows, already).
