Theoretically, yes, as each fold would increase the height of the stack by 100%. After 12 folds a paper stack is typically 2 feet high. If you plug this into a formula - and mind you these are my own private calculations and can be wrong - and anticipate 50 folds, the stack would tower 549,755,813,888 feet (104,120,419.3 miles), which would not only dwarf Mount Everest (29,029 ft) but exceed the circumference of the Earth itself (24,901.55 miles) by several times.

As a point of interest, the current world record for folding a piece of paper of any size consecutively in half is only 12 times.
