Yeah, it's less common to see ' used for minutes of time and " used for seconds of time than it is to see those characters used for minutes and seconds of longitude/latitude. I wouldn't say that either is "informal", but the audience for time values is broader than that for longitude/latitude values and hence less likely to be familiar with the notation.
