I think many Chinese people also get confused about this
Eg 办公室 is one word (词) that consists of three characters (字)
[办], [公] and [室] are the characters (字) that form the word 办公室。

I suppose it depends on the definition of many Most Chinese do know how words are formed. But I suppose you're referring to the type of delusional 'Chinese' that believe traditional and simplified characters are completely different like different languages lol. Honestly, it's like English people who can still recognize Swedish alphabets even with all the markings. Only difference is while English and Swedish are different languages, simplified and traditional chinese are the same.
