As David writes, the syntax is correct in writing as you do, but the
result is quite different from what you intend. Test with a simple
example, and you will find out. You will see that time has been
multiplied, but not the note or rest itself. The only exception is
the R1, the multi-measure rest.
It’s not an exception, only an R will be printed multiple times if it
crosses barlines. Try this:
%%%%%%%
\version "2.18"
{ \time 2/4 R1 }
%%%%%%%
No * there, but it still prints two full-bar rests.
