Specifically, the hallmark characteristic of hemipterans is their proboscis. The proboscis serves to pierce tissues and remove liquids. The bodypart and the function will be evidenced in the boxelder bug's (Boisea trivittata) feeding upon seed-bearing ash (Fraxinusspp) and maple (Acer spp) trees.

The division of trees into hardwood and softwood by a botanic measure is misleading. e.g. balsa is a hardwood! This old style division is in fact based on the seed reproduction - flowering or coniferous. A better descriptor is angiosperm or gymnosperm. Gymnosperm have 'naked' seeds - your conifers. And directly to your question, as a flowering tree, box elder is an angiosperm - or hardwood in the obsolete naming.
