Yes.

Explanation:

Force F=mcdot a
Where m is the mass and a its acceleration of the object.
Also Kinetic Energy KE=1/2mv^2
Given that F prop 1/v
We know that acceleration a is -=(dv)/dt
:. one of the v in the expression for Kinetic energy can be written as
KE=1/2mv^2propm(a.t).v
Since the factor 1/2 is a constant, it has been absorbed in the propotionality. Rearranging

KEprop(m.a).(t.v)

Substituting for force and its given inverse proportionality we get
KEprop1/(cancel v).(t. cancel v)
KEprop t

t is time
