No. Writer is not a DPT program like Scribus (page layout based), but use the paradigm of content flow where pages are just a "content containment". Pages are not "objects" by itself so you cannot select them: it is possible to classify them with page styles, and group them with page breaks, but nothing else. Note that this behaviour is not either wrong nor right, it's just a different way of thinking documents. Writer is best suited when automated formatting (text books with lots of headings, for example) is possible, Scribus is best suited when direct control (magazines, photography books...) of layout elements is a must.
