Once you have installed a particular winetrick into a particular prefix, it is "permanently" installed in that prefix. (In most cases, the only way to get rid of it would be to delete the whole prefix.) However, installing a winetrick into one prefix won't have any effect on other prefixes. Winetricks does maintain a cache of what it has downloaded, so any given _download_ doesn't need to be repeated even if the distfile is used needed more than one winetrick and/or installed into more than one prefix. This cache is stored separately, not in any prefix.
