Not in KDevelop3, for KDevelop4 nothing is set in stone yet.

You have keyboard shortcuts to close _all_ toolviews at once (and
you have 3 to open/close each one of them) - see the Configure Shortcuts
dialog. You can also assign accelerators to the toolviews, just
right-click the button and select a number, they will then be opened
when you hit Alt+<num>
