Only if you fail to apply the condition to the paragraph that contains the text inset. 

A text inset sits within the paragraph in which the cursor was located when you imported it. Once the text inset is there, it looks like that paragraph "follows" the text inset (especially if you don't display text symbols and/or don't have the text inset selected). But in fact, it's the _container_ paragraph for the text inset. If you apply the condition to the entire container paragraph, not just to the text inset, and then hide the condition, the entire container paragraph, text inset included, disappears.
