I've been exposed to dust and pollen throughout my entire life, yet I wonder if it's possible to develop an allergy to something after too much exposure.

Yes it is possible. With things like beestings, pollin, pennicillin, sawdust, it's easy to develop an allergy. It's just a matter of how your body reacts to certain things.

I've heard of many cases like yours, and it's a common thing to once be able to resist something, and then after a while have it bother your sinuses, skin, etc.
I hope I've answered your question well.
