Hi,

Yes and no. Qubes uses Xen as hypervisor. Since only one hypervisor can 
utilize the hardware virtualization support at a time, you need 
VirtualBox with software virtualization. VirtualBox dropped support for 
software virtualization in version 6. So, recent versions of VirtualBox 
can not be used in Qubes, but older versions can.


All the best
