Yes.  You can use "set clip" to control the clipping behaviour of
the plot itself, but that does not apply to separate elements like
labels, arrows, rectangles, etc.

If you want to draw arrows that are clipped to the plot
area, you would have to use a plot command:

    plot sin(x), \
    '-' using 1:2:3:4 with vectors
         x0 y0 xdelta ydelta
    e
