No, both the live view via the LCD back panel and the live view via the EVF get their signal from the imaging sensor. So it does not matter if you look through the EVF or not, the sensor will heat up.

What I meant was, let's say you only want to use the EVF. When the eye sensor doesn't detect you using it, it can then turn the main sensor off as opposed to using it to drive the big screen view.
