Yes, but most the majority of the time they knee the ball.
If a punt returner receives the ball in the end zone and is tackled in the end zone is it a touch back or safety?
As long as the returner never steps out of the endzone with the ball than it is a touchback, because it would be just like taking a knee. But if he was ever outside of the endzone with the ball and gets tackled in the endzone it is a safety.

In the NFL can a player other than a QB take a knee or slide to end a play at any place on the field?
Yes, when the QB takes a knee or slides he is telling everyone that he does not intend to advance the ball any further. Any player in possession of the ball may do this without penalty.An example would be on a kickoff that travels into the end zone. The returner can catch the ball and go down on one knee to indicate he does not intend to advance the ball. In this instance, the ball is placed on the 20 yard line and the receiving team has possession on first down.Another example would be late in a game when a defensive player makes an interception with the offensive team behind and driving for the go ahead score. Instead of running with the ball he may go down to the ground to end the play to avoid being hit and possibly fumbling the ball back to the offensive team.

Can a kickoff receiver catch the ball in the field of play and run back into their own end zone and take a knee for a touchback?
they can. but it would be called a safety and the opposing team would gain 2 points and the ball back by kickoff. because forward progress was made, it is the same as if the quarterback was sacked in the teams endzone. the receiving player who would do this would be quickly lynched by his own fans. There is a reason why this has not been done.
Knee flexion is when the knee is bent?
