Did you install the version of Firefox that supports Group Policy? If so, yes. If not, no.

I've never needed to do this, I didn't know there were two versions, one for GP and one without.

Do users have local admin?
Can non admins install FF addons?
not all users have local admin, some using domain user ..
my engineers r already set on firewall to block http proxy , but doesnt works ..I'm guessing you're only blocking http proxy, not https proxy, though that is much harder... Really start by blocking outbound 443, bit that is also easily bypassed.
To really stop this you need to stop all outbound traffic that you don't specifically allow.
if i block 443, some of my web services like mapi and another web applications also using https ...
As Scott said, a properly setup firewall and proxy setup will allow these things to work. Of course you will have more work in front of you, for example outlook won't use a proxy that you don't setup by default. You may have other software that you will have to manually setup assuming you are not using a transparent proxy.
What kind of proxy sever are you using?

Yup, a normal version for normal users and a business MSI installer with GP built in for businesses.

Do you have it set up as transparent?
nope ..
but now its ok ..
it works with new firewall .. -
Ah good, that will help. So it is working now? The things that you need to block are now blocked?
-
what did you do to fix it?

my network tim and vendors did it .. look like they block any adds on, application, vpn tunneling from firewall tools ...

Ah, so it sounds like the firewall was just not blocking them before?
