Yes, from time to time.
For example the Arrow Air DC-8 that crashed at Gander in December 1985 - the probable cause in the Canadian investigation report (ice contamination, leading to a stall) was only endorsed by 5 of the 9 Board members and the other 4 issued a dissenting report attributing the crash to an on-board fire, possibly the result of an explosion.
