No. A lava flow usually indicates an eruption that is not explosive.
Lava flows of pahoehoe and aa indicate that the eruption was effusive ("quiet") rather than explosive, or only very mildly explosive.

WELL a pahoehoe and aa are created by a non explosive eruption
The difference between Pahoehoe lava and AA lava is that pahoehoe lava is smooth and AA lava is jagged.
They indicate that an eruption is effusive rather than explosive.

An explosive eruption is caused by magma with a high content of water and silica. Non-explosive eruptions are caused by either lava because it is a thicker consistency, or magma with a low content of water and silica.
Pahoehoe lava, Aa lava, and Blocky lava
it hurts to walk on both, and they are both lava. Aa is a rough jagged surface, while I have no idea about blocky lava.
Lava is not explosive. Eruptions of magma from a volcano can be explosive or not, depending on the pressure pushing it up from deep below the Earth's surface and on how hot (thin) it is.
Pahoehoe comes from an explosive eruption, whereas AA comes from quiet eruptions.
