A focusing screen in a pinhole camera? Uhh...no. A pinhole camera is a box with a very small hole in one end of it and a piece of film in the other end.

The screens in reflex cameras and in view cameras are translucent to give the image something to form on. The light will pass through a transparent screen without forming an image, and it won't go through an opaque screen at all.
