No.

FM adds HTML mapping, options, etc., tables to your reference pages when you select File > Utilities > HTML Setup. Note that it adds the HTML tables even before it opens the HTML Setup dialog box. So once you select that command, the HTML tables exist even if you immediately close the HTML Setup dialog box. 

The size of the mapping table (the main one), and thus number of reference pages added, is directly related to the number of paragraph, character, and cross-reference formats in the document, since it's these that the mapping table maps to HTML elements.
