As far as I know, no. They are distinct separate characters in the system
and not related to a or e other than looks.

Is there an easy way to change letters with acutes to letters without
acutes
(i.e. replace á with a, é with e, ó with o, etc.) without doing a
Find/Replace on every vowel individually?
