No, the valves are not adjustable.

That would depend on which engine you have : The 3.0 liter " Vulcan " V6 engine has a total of ( 12 valves / 2 valves per cylinder ) The 3.0 liter DOHC " Duratec " V6 engine has a total of ( 24 valves / 4 valves per cylinder )
In a 2006 Ford Freestyle your 3.0 liter DOHC Duratec V6 engine has ( 4 valves per engine cylinder )

By interference, if you are referring to the valves. The 1.8 liter is a non interference engine. If the timing belt brakes, then the valves do not interfere with the piston. They do not try and occupy the same space. The 1.9 liter engine is an interference engine. If the timing belt breaks then the valves will occupy the same space as the piston and they will hit each other.
The 4.6 liter 2V ( 2 valves per engine cylinder ) is ( 248 horsepower ) The 4.6 liter 3V ( 3 valves per engine cylinder ) is ( 292 horsepower ) In the 2010 Ford F-150
The valves can be adjusted on your 2.3 liter Ford engine. Valves that are noisy may be caused by a bad rocker arm.
