Yes. There is no such thing comparable to what wind players
can do, because wind players generate their sound in an
instrument that is held in the mouth, while singers generate their
sound in the larynx. If you'll take a look at any anatomy book and
think about the path of the flow of air it will be obvious that this
difference in the location of the sound source is critical.

Shouting about it (i.e., putting the subject in capital letters) won't
make such a thing possible.
