The range bonus in watchtowers applies at all times, yes. However, watchtowers are never worth it. Their armor is so abysmal that just about any unit can move in and take them down with minimal damage, whereas a stronghold or normal bunker will likely cause serious harm to someone trying to brute force it.

Unless you load it up with stingers and someone tries tanking it with warhawks, or load it up with mortars and they try taking it with a challenger, it won't last very long against anything. Stay away from watchtowers, they're a waste of time.
