Not! 
 If you need to support a user selecting items from > 5k elements, please implement a custom picker field that queries the API in the background.

For handling such a large dataset, it is recommended to use a custom picker. 
 Additionally, it is advisable to begin entering a few characters, and only after, for example, three characters have been inputted, should the suggestion function be executed.
