Most likely it's normal. RAM usage depends on scene complexity - the heavier the scene, the more RAM Corona needs to render it. If it only takes small portion of available RAM and renders fine, then you have nothing to worry about, the trouble begins when there's not enough available RAM.

I made a render with noise lvl at 4, and 2160x3600 resolution, and it took almost 3 hours, is it normal?

To answer questions about speed of rendering, we'd need to see an image from the scene to judge scene complexity, know which hardware you have, and preferably have the stats from the VFB that shows things like rays/s (you could just screengrab the stats). Otherwise we couldn't tell you if this is normal or not.
