No they do not.
By definition circumpolar stars do not "rise".
They are above the observer's horizon at all times.

What star constellation rises in the east and sets in the west?
All of them - except the ones that are circumpolar (that don't rise or set at all). Which ones are circumpolar depends on your latitude.
Where would you see the least number of circumpolar stars?
At the equator, you will see no circumpolar stars.
How many circumpolar stars would you see if standing on the equator?
If you were standing on the equator, how many circumpolar stars would you see?
What direction do stars rise from?
The stars rises from the EAST, passing overhead, and setting in the West.
In the northern hemisphere there are some stars that do not appear to rise or set as other stars do These stars are?
Circumpolar stars. In the northern hemisphere, the north star does not rise or set; the north pole is always pointing toward it. The canopy of stars moves around the north star over the course of a day, giving the apparent rising in the east and setting in the west of most stars as the canopy dips below and moves above the horizon. The stars that are close enough to the north star never set. The part of the canopy that is visible at night changes over the course of a year.
How is a circumpolar stars different from other stars?
They are always visible in the sky. (Unless it's cloudy). They don't "rise" and "set" at the latitudes where they are circumpolar.
Where would you be if you couldn't see any circumpolar stars?
Nothing seen in the sky from a point on the Equator is "circumpolar", meaning that everything in the sky appears to rise and set.
Which star do not appear to move from east to west?
During roughly half of the time, 'circumpolar' stars don't appear to move from east to west. Which ones those are depends on your latitude. All other stars all the time, and circumpolar stars for the other half of the time, do appear to move from east to west.

Do the stars rise in the sky from the east?
Earth rotates toward the east, so all stars appear to rise in the east.
If you were standing on the north pole how many circumpolar stars would you see?
All stars are circumpolar
Where would you see the least number of circumpolar stars?
At the equator, you will see no circumpolar stars.
What is special about circumpolar stars?
A circumpolar star never sets below your horizon.
What is circumpolar motion?
Circumpolar motion refers to the motion of the stars relative to the viewer in a particular spot. Stars that are said to be circumpolar never cross the horizon as they cross the sky for the viewer.
