Yes and no. They definitely push the boundaries, and the framework imposes certain extra restrictions on how it wants you to use them, and they warp your normal intuitions a bit. But at the end of the day they are just function calls. They don't compile down to some other sort of construct with totally different language semantics. There's a fundamental difference between a framework that takes your code and does weird things with it, vs a framework that rewrites the semantics of your code out from under you.
