No, if you deleted the btrfs driver it would simply fail to mount due to the missing driver, if it's a separate module in the first place. Same with LUKS, if you don't have the tools or the drivers installed for it, it'll just not mount it. You'd have to be accessing the drive directly with something like dd to corrupt it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Never say never, but that is highly doubtful at best. The driver either is there or it isn't and won't mount anyway
