I don't believe so, I've grown many many orchids and the stem is where the new shoots come from, the roots are more like rhizomes. I could be wrong, but I don't think that's the case.
Side note, spaghnum moss, a teensy bit of guano and a spray bottle are your best things to use on an orchid. Some of my proudest achievements in the world of botany is to get orchids to grow and re-flower over and over
