    statistically no, but its possible to get a random group of poppyseeds that are extra potent. its why for example, South Korea bans it (as they dont even want the chance for them to get collected)

        The poppy seeds don’t contain the opiate, the surrounding latex contains it (visual: pomegranate seeds, and the inedible flesh you free it from).

        Some of that opiate might get on the seeds, but its mixed into such quantities with other poppy seeds that the potency level is diluted to virtually nothing.
