No. If the file does not already exist then it will be created. If the file does already exist then it will be overwritten.

Notice, Check the file is close before you go on, because can't write data and file is open.

Note: to close all open file handles:
fclose all

imwrite(A,filename,fmt);
This is the general format of imwrite. Its not necessary that image needs to be present in ur folder. Where A is ur image which u want to save,specify the file name and its format. For ex:
imwrite(im_DIF,'Image difference.bmp','bmp');

You cannot use imwrite() to write dicom images. You need dicomwrite()

My version of Matlab is 2018b. Yeah I solve the problem with K and k and I get the same error. And if I use the arrayCells inside of for, that is:
for k=1:numel(arrayCells)
filename = sprintf('Output_block_%d.png', K);
imwrite(arrayCells{k}, filename);
end
I get this error: "Error using imwrite (line 433)
Unable to determine the file format from the file name" because I use arrayCells but if I use "block" I don´t have any problem but I don´t get my goal

With the code you show you actually haven't fixed the code yet. The code below should work a lot better.
for k=1:numel(arrayCells)
filename = sprintf('Output_block_%d.png', k);%<--- lower case k, instead of upper case K
imwrite(arrayCells{k}, filename);
end

for k=1:numel(I)
imwrite(I{k}, ['filename' num2str(k) '.pgm']);
end
%I is arraycells
