The definition of periodic means occurring at intervals of time.
 
In my opinion, a periodic function is a time variant system if the considered time is in the limits of the periodic time constant.
However, since a different input value produces a same output value if the time difference is a multiple of time constant you may consider a periodic function as a "limited time variant”.
