My plant has what I think is a boron deficiency, yellow and grayish leaves, so if I give it avocadl would that help? Avocado has a good amount of boron

For what, the bugs that the avocado will attract?

I really doubt you have a boron def, but boric acid (eye wash), will fix it right up. It's very rare.

Never treat for a single element diff. this leads to other problems, just use something like Cal-mag and you won't cause more issues. Put the Avocado in your salad.
