Yes.
You can do any of those options, depending on how you want the final outcome to be. Before the boil will probably degrade more of the delicate aromas of the fruit and give it a thicker, "cooked" flavor...if you like that, perfect. After the boil would be ok if you are using fresh juice that's neither pasteurized nor treated with pereservatives...this will effectively pasteurize without having too much effect on the aromas. Then just chill the wort as usual and pitch your yeast. Or, you can add it after chilling. You can also add it when you rack your beer to its secondary fermentation.

There will be subtle differences in the final beer depending on what stage you choose to add your concentrate. Ultimately, it's a matter of what final result you prefer, so I'd say experiment with each and decide which method you enjoy better.

Put most of it into the secondary fermenter (the primary fermentation might scrub flavor out of the batch). The remaining flavoring should be added right before bottling time. Add it to taste.

Fruit is hard considering which you decide on an outstanding sort of it or it is going to burn out. Or are you including it on the tip? nonetheless going to choose somewhat. Blueberry is powerful, yet once you have a typical hopped lager i could say positioned some orange in there or lemon.
