No.
Spline is implemented using line segments as approximation.
Splinepoints is a totally different thing. It's implemented as other ellipses in that splinepoints uses solid algebra of quadratic curves, so it's not by line segments, and not intended for explosion.

Indeed, 'Spline through points' does not react to 'Explode'. Maybe just nobody has discovered this up to now and it is a bug. Or it is not possible in this variant. It works with the simple 'Spline', defined by control points.
To delete a part of a line in V. 2.2.0 you have to cut up the line at the desired points with Tools - Modify - Divide and then delete the cut free part.
The upcoming V 2.2.1, now available as a release candidate, has a lot more new features, including cut out features.
