Yes, it says the timer is capable of doing what it is suppose to do so there's likely some other cause preventing it when it doesn't. It is likely fine.

or whether both coils are operational?
Just that indicates nothing at all toward the condition of the element. On a 'timed' dryer cycle, the timer doesn't care if the dryer is heating or not. The elements could be there and good, there and bad or even totally missing and the timer wouldn't know the difference on a 'timed' cycle.
