No. Each fertilizer serves a purpose and most require multiple applications throughout the growing season. For any fertilizer you purchase read the instruction for application carefully.
the numbers on the fertilize bag represent three items of content.First number,lets say 10,means N which stands for nitrogen,(ammonium nitrate)which lasts approx.3 months.And roughly speaking,above ground crops need lots of this.The second no.,say15,stands for P (phosphate)and lasts in the soil ,generally speaking,the entire summer.Third no.,say 20,stands for K (potash,or potassium).Most above ground veg's and flowers can benefit from some "sidedressing"or additional feeding of ammonium nitrate 33-00-00 during the growing cycle.Be careful you don't "burn"your plants by overfeeding.I really like (not endorsing)miracle grow because I can get the type mix needed for the plant.By the way,spread a couple bags ammonium nitrate on your lawn,water it in,then listen to your grass grow.
Fertilizer is to be used as described on the container it comes in. I use extended release which is good for three to four months and then needs to be reapplied. If you have cold winters keep it in the house if you can. I don't, but I keep it in my garage where it is somewhat sheltered from the cold. If it is liquid I would keep it in the house. No fertilizer will last until next season if it is already on the soil. It will be used up.

That depends on what fertilizer and how it was stored.
