From: In your head.
I wouldn't have thought so. The chocks, whether positioned correctly or not shouldn't affect the brake temps at all.

The brake temps will generally rise a bit after you arrive on stand, due to the lack of airflow over the brake unit. If you have brake fans a la BAe146, then you will see the temps decreasing, hopefully!

Hope that helps.
