The meaning of any word depends on the context.
Poached eggs is the way eggs are prepared/cooked. The verb poach also has other meanings in different contexts and yeah it could mean to illegally catch or kill an animal, as this example I found online:
<em style="color: rgb(36, 36, 36);">The two men were caught poaching lions on government land.</em>

Ougi: Yes. Boiling an egg means cooking it with its shell in boiling water.
