No, some puffballs are not poisonous and yes, some puffballs are poisonous.

Specifically, the term puffball generally designates any one of three categories under that name. The category of true puffballs includes mushrooms which are not poisonous and which are best eaten when the inside flesh still is undeveloped and white-colored. The category of false puffballs includes deadly agaric mushrooms while that of stalked puffballs should be avoided as not poisonous but not generally edible.
