Yes your vocal cords that are stretched taunt and produce sound through vibrations of air passing over them are used to make the noises that are called your voice. Sometimes people will refer to this part of your body as your voice box but that is not the proper name for the body part.

The correct name for the part of the body that produces vocal sounds is the larynx. It is made up of the vocal cords and several pieces of cartilage and muscles. It is frequently referred to as the voice box.
