Dirt as we know it only arose after plants fungi and insects colonized the land. The roots/hyphae of the plants/fungus holding eroded material in place and all of them dying and adding biomass to the stuff eventually creating what we call dirt.
So yes many aquatic animals, and stuff are literally older than dirt
