Depends on what type they are.

Conifers will do a better job than most as they are evergreen.

deciduous trees (those that drop leaves in the winter) are not so good

It also depends on how close trees are , whether they form a hedge or are planted at woodland spacing.

Trees will slow down wind ( also depends on how strong the wind is). If you stand directly behind a large tree yes it will definitely block the wind e.g oak tree with a girth bigger than a person is wide.
