Is is possible to have "bad" electricity in your home?
It's definitely possible to have poor power quality, which can lead to shortened life of devices.  It's possible for this to be caused by poor wiring in the building, though it's more commonly a problem with the distribution system. 

In areas where utilities are older, it's common for the distribution systems to be overloaded by higher consumer demand.  This can lead to voltage fluctuations, which can be rough on electrical devices.  

An electrician can monitor the system, and diagnose power quality problems. However,  they may be limited in their ability to solve the problem. The building owner may not be willing to pay for the repair, or the problem may be outside the building.
