Yes, to a point. I try to call the entire zone in the first place and will make it slightly bigger if both pitchers need it as the game goes on. I will only adjust the zone larger, not smaller.

This is one of the downfalls of "adjusting" your zone. In your case, it might be better to stay with the same zone no matter what level you are working if you have trouble making the adjustment.

Because you're human? (as far as I know!)
