Yes – simply text type column can be used to store timestamp. Once it will retrieve from the database it can parse in long type as required. For example:
long timeStamp = 1456789985674L;
//To save timestamp in database(SQLite)
String dataBaseValue = String.valueOf(timeStamp);
//To fetch timestamp in database(SQLite)
timeStamp = Long.valueOf(dataBaseValue);
//timeStamp can be used as per requirements.
