Simple answer: yes, the IRS can levy anyone, anything, anywhere, anytime. Pay them what you owe, or they will take it...
On another note, if you are referring to a matter of owing the IRS on a personal level, they may choose to simply levy any personal accounts you have instead of drawing from the corporate checking account.

Can the IRS freeze your checking account if you owe them money?
I don't believe so. They will make sure they get paid by garnishing your wages though. Hope this helps a little. The IRS can issue a Notice of Levy to your bank. It doesn't "freeze" your bank accounts, per se. What it does is require the bank to turn over any money that is in your bank account at the moment the Notice of Levy is received. Any money you deposit after the Notice of Levy is received remains yours, the IRS only gets what was there when the bank got the notice. Banks are required to hold that money aside for 21 days, and then turn it over to the IRS. This means that you have a 21 day window to convince the IRS to release the levy, and if you can get them to do that the bank will return the money to your account. After the 21st day the bank sends the money to the IRS -- at that point it is almost impossible to get your money back, so act quickly!
