Very unlikely. When a power supply "blows", a fuse is destroyed in the power supply. This is what the fuse was designed for. When a high voltage comes through, the fuse will burn out to prevent the surge from reaching the rest of the electronics. A surge protector does the same thing, but is better at catching voltage spikes than the power supply.

The image is of a ship hit by explosives, being blown out of the water. If you are blown out of the water by something, it is so surprising or astonishing that you are left speechless.
