No, but if they are new mothers and it is their first litter, they might sit on the babies for a day. Afterwards and from time to time, she will look for food to eat, and water, because she has to produce enough milk to feed her babies. If she sits on her babies constantly or a lot, it's probably because there is little or no insulating materials in the cage. You must supply insulating material, or the babies will die of hypothermia. You can supply insulating material, such as shredded newspaper or shredded paper from your paper shredder; wood shavings, or even the kind of straw that horses and cows eat. Don't disurb the mother mouse and her babies for at least a week or two.
