No, spending your life in cryo sleep would only shorten your life span. You see, while you sleep, your body doesn't need to worry about things it normally has to, such as movement and thinking. Sleep gives it time to repair itself. This is especially important to brains. While you sleep, your brains repair themselves, make new connections between the cells and do a lot of important maintenance. All the information you have gathered during a day gets sorted out. All this helps you be healthy and feel better the next day.
Cryo sleep essentially stops or at least slows down every function in your body. Thus, in cryo sleep, your body and brains won't repair themselves. You will wake out of cryo sleep exactly as you entered it. Eventually, not being able to make the necessary repairs and improvements, your body starts getting noticeable effects. Eventually, not getting true sleep will get you killed.
So no, replacing regular sleep with cryo sleep isn't worth it. While cryo sleep is like sleep, it's definitely not nearly as useful as real sleep. You don't just sleep for the sake of sleeping, you sleep for the sake of recovering your body from the effects of the day.
