No. Though there are a few tasks open for that.
First of all there is a way to define these shortcuts system wide, Google for "mac keybindings".
Unfortunately Qt doesn't respect these (since Qt uses its own text editor implementation), see
http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-393

Also, Qt Creator doesn't provide a way to override the keys (since it's using the Qt text editor implementation)

You might want to vote on these :)
