All of a sudden my dryer stopped drying my clothes is it possilbe that is the element I remember changing it a few years back

It could be the element or it could be that the two 120 legs that are suppose to bring you 240 VAC are not working properly.

But it more likely that the dryer vent is clogged with lint. That will kill air flow through the dryer into the exhaust vent. I would make sure the vent is clear before jumping into the middle of failure analysis.
