Perhaps; If time was in fact slowing down one's perception of time would slow down inline with clocks, so any slowing of time would be unnoticeable, if time only seems to be slowing down we would be able to notice the disparity between our perception of time and the measure of a clock - This would however be indistinguishable from our perception speeding up and time remaining constant, something that happens on certain, ah, substances - everything seems to be moving extremely slowly as if time had slowed down around us.
