No. Ctrl+W is a legitimate key combination for terminal apps, commonly bound to "delete word". Unfortunately, anything with Ctrl as a modifier conflicts with terminal emulator. We just can't have sane and consistent shortcuts like Apple/Mac OS X, because there is no dedicated system key for things like copy/paste/close.
