Mounting & removed tires too much?

Does frequently mounting and removing tires “stretch” them or otherwise damage them?

for my gravel bike I have one set of rims and two sets of tires, one with a much more aggressive tread pattern, that I choose depending on terrain I’m riding.

Does the repeated mounting and dismounting harm the tires? Will they stretch and no longer seat to the wheel?
