Probably depends what you consider premature.
If you had a genuine Napoleonic musket I expect it would be a very bad idea to keep it cocked, any spring under tension will weaken over time (compared to one under less tension) no matter how imperceptibly but from the sounds of it in a modern gun it doesn't make any noticeable difference.
