No, each box is a bit of code which is executed at various strategic locations. These may or may not have queries. The only way to effectively reduce your query count is to disable mods, unless you know how to program PHP, in which case you could look into making these mods more efficient.
The best thing to do is to turn on debug mode with your forums closed then browse your various pages, looking for any red entries in the box at the bottom of the page (the one which appears when you turn on debug mode). These red entries are unnecessary queries, which can be fixed.
