The noise in the digital sensor is a direct product of stray particles (mostly electrons) in the sensor. Freezing the sensor (like is routinely done in pro astronomy as mentionned by Richard Seiling) is a good way to reduce the sensor noise. However, the first obstacle you'll find when freezing a whole camera is that some of the electronics (and the LCD) may stop working until the temperature goes up again. So, don't go too low. And beware of frozen fingers when holding such a cold object. This is basic physics with a little kitchen-approach to solutions.
