I believe not.

"schema1.mytable" and "schema2.mytable" are entirely
separate entities, even though they have the same
name. How else could they be distinguished, if not by
the schema qualification?

If you link from Access to tables in any other DBMS
that supports schemas (e.g. MS SQL Server), you will
find the same thing.
