This is possible but unlikely. Your description suggests your partner does not have warts, more likely vestibular papillomatosis, which is unrelated to HPV and entirely normal in some women. Google it for photos.

Chances are near 0 in this scenario. The lesions you describe are not typical HPV but need to be examined for a diagnosis.
