Short answer: no.
Long answer: yes, but some modding skill and plan*** is needed.
Most units in TEAW are based on templates, contrary to older games, where most were independent.
Base units are CMN versions.
Example:
12CMNReserve Brigade.mdl for reserve class units
or
13CMNMilitia Brigade.mdl for militia class units.
13CMNMilitia has abilities like:
UID = 13
NationTag = CMN
Name = Militia Brigade
Alias = mdl_CMN_Inf_Mil
ShortName = Mil. Bde.
Text = $mdl_txt_CMN_Inf_Mil
Family = $famMilitia
ImageID = symbol_militias.png
NatoSize = $sizNatoBde
Color = $colCMNMain

*** there is tech upgrade in game set as research, so units can upgrade to new tech.
Example: in 1916 scenario playing as Germany all new
reserve infantry units upgrade during their build/train/recruit turns from cmn_inf_res into cmn_inf_lin2. So it's cheaper and faster to build them instead standard infantry.
