Yes. For example:
Style Netscape* StartsOnPage 0 1, SkipMapping
Makes all new netscape windows appear on page 0 1. With the
SkipMapping style fvwm will not switch to that page when the
window appears.

Either prevent that it is started at all. Find the command
"FvwmPager ..." or "Module FvwmPager ..." in your config file and
remove it. Or if you want to remove a running FvwmPager, there
are several possibilities. You can close the pager like any other
window, e.g. from the window menu (it it has one). Or you can
start an FvwmConsole window (from some menu) and type
KillModule FvwmPager*
THe same can be done from any shell with FvwmCommand:
FvwmCommand "KillModule FvwmPager*"
This requires that the FvwmCommandS module is started in your
config file. Personally, I have a "kill" button on my button bar,
so whenever I want to get rid of any window I just click there and
then select the window to be killed. You can find an old version
of my FvwmButtons configuration at the end of the FvwmButtons man
page.
