No, Print Preview does not show the automatically inserted blank pages. At least, it doesn't on my system. On my documents, in Print Preview, the only hint that blank pages have been inserted is in the page numbers. If one chapter ends on a right page, the next chapter automatically begins on a right page so a left page is inserted to cause this to happen. Right pages always have odd-numbered pages, so if one chapter ends on, say, page 21, the next chapter will begin on page 23 so you know that blank page 22 was inserted. However, if you export to pdf, the pdf file will have the blank pages.

Your message is not clear if your blank pages are in Writer or the printed output. If the latter, another cause may be when jumping to another right or left page from the same page style. Writer inserts a blank page to make that jump. See also Printer Options -> Other -> Print Automatically Inserted Blank Pages. This happens if you are on a left page for example and insert a manual page break with a style that starts on a left page. Then, a blank right page will be inserted to get to that new left page. This usually shows your page numbers jumping by 2 but not a blank page in Writer itself. I would expect the preview would show the blank page, however, since it is displaying what the printed output would be.
Hope this helps

There two main reasons to have blank pages:
1. Invisible content: Use View/Nonprinting Charakters (Ctrl-F10), look
   for whitespace characters and delete them
2. Manual page breaks: you see a dashed line between the last page and
   the blank page. Click on last page and hit backspace until the blank
   page disappeares.
