Hi and welcome to the Forum.

I don't know for certain, but if it's like anywhere else in Europe, then the answer is no; these contributions are generally regarded as social taxes and go towards providing social support to everyone in Belgium and paying you a State pension when you reach pensionable age.

Hope this helps.
