Yes. Water can move behind a panel and collect at the wall bottom. The moisture technician checks reachable back and side surfaces before setting the drying plan.

Open doors improve some airflow, but they do not remove water in a closed toe kick or under the cabinet floor. Extraction comes first where liquid is accessible.
