Yes, if you set that folder as a ClosedFilePath (blocks all access) or WriteFilePath (hides existing files outside the sandbox, but allows creating new files).
In the Sandboxie-Plus UI these correspond the the access types "Closed" or "Box Only".

You could set the box type to one of the "Privacy Protection" ones (requires a supporter certificate), which will hide personal files by default, only allowing read access to certain whitelisted locations.

If when i create a new sandbox i delete a text document inside that sandbox (only in the sandbox not in the normal folder), then if i get a virus inside that sandbox the virus can read that text document that i deleted?

No, not if I understand what you meant, correctly. A file inside a sandbox is removed, if it is deleted in the sandbox. If it was a copy and the source can't be read, due to access rules, the file can't be read. By default, Sandboxie does not allow raw disc access, so a deleted file can't be recovered.
