It would depend on the box. If you just have a lipo fire, then most likely they will contain the initial fire, and the lack of oxygen will keep the fire from buring long. If it explodes, then it all depends on the quality of the box. In an explosion, something has to give somewhere to let that pressure out.

I store/transport mine in an military ammo box that's lined with foam. A lipo just sitting is likely not going to start on fire, or explode, but I had a couple extra boxes and they make a handy way to transport them.
