Possibly indirectly.: If you have dry, rough, stool and are straining excessively to pass stool - that could be a source of back pain that would be in conjunction with hemorrhoids (but not caused by it). If you have large external hemorrhoids and alter your gait or how you sit to decrease presurre on hemorrhoids (compensate) that could also lead to back pain. Take care.
