Uh, no. During the first Curse in the Enchanted Forest as well as Storybrooke, time was frozen. It was the same time and day as it was when the Curse was enacted. So Roland's age was unaffected as was everyone else who were affected by the Curse (in the Enchanted Forest, not only was time frozen in place, but people, otherwise Phillip would have found Aurora long before Emma broke the Curse and his or Mulan's line regarding time in the Enchanted Forest would have implied so).
