Yes, like all types of squash, pumpkins do flower. Each plant has male and female flowers. The male flowers grow on long, thin stalks, while the stalk end of the female flower eventually becomes the fruit. For a while, each pumpkin will still have a flower attached to its base. As the fruit matures, the flower will dry up and fall off.
