If they do, I've never heard it.
I think it's worth noting that reverb is usually used as an electronic term. Resonance may be a better description of what's going on in a closed can (and some open ones as well...see Grado). With appropriate damping, it may not occur at all, or it may be minimized. With appropriate design, it's an integral part of the design of the headphone, not just closed ones. If not carefully done, this chamber resonance can have a negative effect on the sound space...if it's done well, it can be a revelation.
