No, combat bonuses (including ECM, combat sensors, experience and special armour) have no effect on seekers whatsoever.

The only ways to avoid getting hit by a missile are
a- shoot it down with pdc (actually, combat sensors and experience can help here)
b- get out of range of it
c- destroy your enemy before he can launch the missile=-)

Also, you gain no experience if you destroy a ship using seekers.

It's still worth training your missile boats to build up their experience though- combat bonuses will still help them avoid getting hit by direct fire weapons.
