Is it possible to have specific keys stop working on your keyboard?

hey guys,

weird question, but recently I've noticed certain keys stopped working correctly. My F1-F12 keys don't seem to be registering. For one, on DOTA when I press F2, it uses my first item slot instead of going to the courier. I thought this could be an issue with DOTA 2, but I am trying to get to the boot menu of my PC and am literally slamming my F keys to get there, and it is not registering...at all. I hit the F lock button thinking it may have caused it, but it is not doing anything at all. Is it possible my old keyboard is on its last leg and needs to be replaced or is this an issue within my PC?

Thanks!
