Not according to George Beauchamp, the inventor of the electromagnetic guitar pickup in 1934.
When you think about it, EM pickups work through the process of induction.
It is impossible for any type of wood to initiate induction. Same is true for pressure waves or sound waves.
Now whether the types of wood used in an electric guitar influence the "holistic" sound of the instrument is an entirely different question.
