Question:

is an air-coil inductor the same as an inductor that comes in a black box?

can I do a mutual inductance experiment using a boxed inductor or it should be an air-coil inductor?

Answer:

If you have 2 inductors that have mutual coupling, they could be either air coupled or coupled by a magnetic core. The package doesn't matter.
yes it is
