No.  Those are just subwindows opened within the Explorer process.

What are you REALLY trying to do?  What's the overall goal?  Explorer
has an extensive shell extension interface that let you participate in
many actions, but opening new folders is not one of them.

Remember, you can open a new folder without opening a new window
