No. The proposed temporary work must fit a listed profession and the applicant must meet its particular qualifications.

A career history can explain experience without changing the nature of the current job. Identify what the applicant will actually do rather than relying on a previous title.
Each profession in Appendix 2 carries its own line, and those lines were written separately: a few name a state or provincial licence, most name a degree, and a small number allow years of experience with a post-secondary certificate. A spouse who is also a qualified accountant, engineer or other listed professional can apply for TN independently, which means a separate U.S. employer, a separate letter describing that spouse's duties and a separate credential. The principal should confirm Canadian or Mexican citizenship, a prearranged role in a listed USMCA profession, and the occupation-specific qualification; permanent residence in Canada cannot substitute for citizenship. The credential alternatives include a baccalaureate or licenciatura degree, or documented equivalent professional experience: five years as a management consultant or in a specialty related to the consulting agreement.
