a calorie is a calorie is a calorie, so if you eat too much then yes. If you're diet only consists of fruits and veggies you will probably develop other problems though - you need proteins and whole grains too.

NO/
Kudos to you for eating six to seven servings of fruit and vegetables each day! Because food contains small amounts of vitamin A, it is unlikely that you are exceeding the Daily Value (DV) of 3,000 IU (International Units) in a day. The Tolerable Upper Level (TUL) of vitamin A. —that is, the most you can take without worrying about any adverse effects. —is 10,000 IU. Foods rich in vitamin A are orange, red and yellow fruits and vegetables, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, tomatoes and cantaloupe; and green leafy vegetables, such as spinach and broccoli.

Iron is more complicated because there is no amount that's right (or wrong) for everyone. Premenopausal women need 18 milligrams (mg) of iron each day, whereas postmenopausal women need only about 10 mg of iron daily. The TUL for iron is 45 mg in a day. Foods rich in iron are red meat, fish, poultry, eggs, legumes and fortified cereals.

Knowing the acceptable intake of each of these nutrients, along with reading labels and/or using some of the resources below, can help guide you further

ALSO IF YOU TOTALY VEGIE AND FRUIT CONSIDER THIS

Plant-based diets can offer an abundance of low-calorie foods, nutrient dense vitamins, minerals and disease-fighting antioxidants that offer a wealth of benefits for your health and your heart. Special health concerns for vegetarians depend on what foods they eliminate and how much variety they get in their diet. Vegetarians who include dairy products and eggs (known as lacto-ovo vegetarians) can easily meet nutrition requirements. A meatless menu can be very healthful as long as you choose low-fat or nonfat dairy foods, limit consumption of egg yolks and stick to low-fat cooking techniques. The resources below provide a wealth of new recipes and information on healthy vegetarian eating

Too much of anything will have negative effects on the body.
We need Oxygen, but too much pure oxygen can kill you,
we need water, but too much will drown you. We need fresh fruits
and vegetables, but if you eat and eat all day long, there will be a negative effect.

Certain starchy fruits and veggies do have more calories in them such as bananas, potatoes, avocadoes, peas and corn so you'll want to eat those in moderation.

Hmmm... The avocado has a rather high fat content... So I'll go with a yes.

Yes, anytime you take in more calories than you burn, you get fat - regardless of whether the food is healthy or unhealthy.
