Usually, yes, if you learn there may be a warrant for you, you can call the clerk of the court that issued the warrant, identify yourself, and ask about any outstanding warrants.
Most people are aware of what they might have done when a warrant is issued. The unexpected warrants are sometimes the result of unpaid traffic tickets or child support and other minor things that become big things when they are not dealt with properly. When you call the court you may be able to find out what you can do to make the warrant go away (such as pay the back child support plus penalties).
For example, one man visiting Arizona threw away a ticket for a technical violation under the motorcycle helmet law. He figured he would never go to Arizona again. A year later, a cop who was a friend told him that there was an interstate warrant out for him from Arizona. It took a couple of calls to the clerk of the court to learn that the unpaid $12 ticket had blown up into a big problem, triple penalties and the arrest warrant. But the clerk gave him 24 hours to clear it up. The man had to go to Western Union and have the fine and penalties delivered directly to the clerk and the warrant was dismissed.

What if a state has a warrant knows where you are and refuses to extradite?
The warrant is basically null unless they change their mind about extradition or you get caught in their state, or one they will extradite from.

The warrant will usually say "Will not extradite from ______" Most states have 10 minutes to find out if a warrant is valid, after that they are required to release you.
