Some of the boxwoods have a lot of brown stems in the middle of the mature plants. Are these plants a dying or can they survive and fill in green again?

This could be caused by environmental issues, pests or disease.
You will need to inspect the plants more closely.
It's a good idea to remove and dead material and clean up the area around the plants and dispose of the plant material.
Here are some articles that will help.
