Yes, they are flanged on the boot side to keep them from backing out and falling out. Can you get the caliper off?

Try putting some pressure on the bolt head while backing it out. Its possible it's all threaded out, but caught at the end and not letting you get the caliper off.

If it's the caliper bolts, yeah. I think you can just yank them out once they're out of the threads. When I did my brakes most of them came out together with the sleeve still around the bolt.
