Hi student,
If civil services is your ultimate goal, then of course it is very much beneficial to start preparing for it right from your first year at college. UPSC has a vast syllabus and needs time for preparation. So start reading the newspaper and the standard books for preparing ahead. It will shape your concepts and help you in future.
Hope it helps.
Good luck.
