No, sorry, it is complete and utter twaddle.
For a start, she could die from pregnancy or birth complications, and that would shorten her life rather drastically.
There is absolutely no scientific basis for this old wives tale.
She is more likely to live longer if you have her neutered, as this will completely protect her from cancer of the womb or ovaries, and greatly reduce her risk of dying from mammary cancer.
By the way- the risk of having an operation like neutering is lower than the risk of pregnancy/birth.
