No. Projects sometimes stop offering the previous license and start using a different one for new work.

But if your project is Apache-2, you cannot take away someone's license after the fact. You can only stop giving away new Apache-2 licenses from that point on.

The difference here is the license itself has mystery terms that can change at any time. That, is very much not done all the time.
