Yes. The two do different things. Explode explodes (unjoins) the entire object, UnjoinEdge allows you to select edges individually to unjoin while leaving the rest joined.

If I explode the entire object, select parts that I want to keep then jion them, is that same effect with the JoinEdge command?

Explode works on an entire object. Join can work on a collection of preselected objects or with post-selection, it can join things one-by-one. In both cases you are selecting objects - curves or surfaces/polysurfaces.

JoinEdge and its inverse UnjoinEdge work on individual edges of surface/polysurface objects, not the entire object.
