It is not, or more precise: it depends on your firmware.
I have one device, which is only showing POIs which are part of the
index. So here you can suppress POIs, if you don't put them in the
index. 
But I have also two newer devices, which seem to ignore the index
completly and always search for POIs in the image. Here you cannot
suppress any POIs. And even worse, this is of course much slower :(
