maybe true maybe false....
if you are leaking coolant into the engine, and it sits there (or maybe even just runs around in there) you stand a too possible chance of rusting the bearings and other stuff you don't want to have to replace, especially if you end up blowing it's guts out to the point it won't run and then leave it for a period if time until you are ready to do the deed...
if it does not progress any further then you may be ok. you have stated somewhere that you are seeing oil in the coolant, I think, and that is a bad sign, it also gums up the coolant works (radiator, pump, lines, heater lines and exchanger for the passenger compartment), basically too close to call for me. If you have another vehicle, and can begin the process of tearing this down to do a head gasket... I would. Have you ever done a compression test btw?
