I would vote NO. If you're not going to be around for "weeks" at a time, the stress of worrying about your tank crashing or other potential problems is not worth it. You should wait till your life situation is more stable and you will be home more to actually enjoy a sw tank.
Since going saltie again about 10 years ago, my longest time away was a week for my fifth anniversary but I had to approach it with the idea that any casualties during that time away was part of the cost of going on vacation. Otherwise I rarely leave for more than four days vacation at a time. Yes, I can get my tanks more automated, but bleep happens (think Murphy's Law).
If you're gone so much, as a newbie, the stress would not be enjoyable.
