Boiling Nuts

I know that peanuts can be boiled. My wife usually boils peanuts in their shells then lets them dry before we eat them.
My question is this, can other nut varieties such as walnuts or cashews also be boiled as well?

Cashews (and true nuts such as pecans and walnuts) are often boiled to make removing the shell easier and to soak them to get rid of any toxicity from the shells.
