No. Intensity drifts over time would be modelled by the high-pass
filter in the GLM, which would fit a few cosine basis functions to the
data, in addition to the various other effects that would typically be
included in the design matrix.  Alternatively, if you just want to
model out linear effects with time, you could disable the high-pass
filtering and include an additional covariate of (1:N)-N/2 in the
design matrix.
